integral of x/(x^4-16)

\int \frac{x}{x ^{4} - 16} d x

- \frac{1}{16} (ln \frac{x ^{2}}{4} + 1 - ln \frac{x ^{2}}{4} - 1) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x}{x ^{4} - 16} d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{1}{2 ( u ^{2} - 16 )} d u

= \int \frac{1}{2 ( u ^{2} - 16 )} d u

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int \frac{1}{u ^{2} - 16} d u

Apply Integral Substitution

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int \frac{1}{4 ( v ^{2} - 1 )} d v

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{4} \cdot \int \frac{1}{v ^{2} - 1} d v

Factor

v^{2} - 1 : - (- v^{2} + 1)

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{4} \cdot \int \frac{1}{- ( - v ^{2} + 1 )} d v

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{4} (- \int \frac{1}{- v ^{2} + 1} d v)

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{- v ^{2} + 1} d v = \frac{ln ∣ v + 1 ∣}{2} - \frac{ln ∣ v - 1 ∣}{2}

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{4} (- (\frac{ln ∣ v + 1 ∣}{2} - \frac{ln ∣ v - 1 ∣}{2}))

Substitute back

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{4} - \frac{ln \frac{x ^{2}}{4} + 1}{2} - \frac{ln \frac{x ^{2}}{4} - 1}{2}

Simplify

\frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{4} - \frac{ln \frac{x ^{2}}{4} + 1}{2} - \frac{ln \frac{x ^{2}}{4} - 1}{2} : - \frac{1}{16} (ln \frac{x ^{2}}{4} + 1 - ln \frac{x ^{2}}{4} - 1)

= - \frac{1}{16} (ln \frac{x ^{2}}{4} + 1 - ln \frac{x ^{2}}{4} - 1)

Add a constant to the solution

= - \frac{1}{16} (ln \frac{x ^{2}}{4} + 1 - ln \frac{x ^{2}}{4} - 1) + C

\int sin (3 x) d x

\int_{0}^{5} 25 - x^{2} d x

h \to 0 lim (x^{2} + 2 x + h - 4)

x \to 0 lim (x^{2})

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (x^{3} sin (y))
