integral of 2/((x-2)^2)

\int \frac{2}{( x - 2 ) ^{2}} d x

- \frac{2}{x - 2} + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{2}{( x - 2 ) ^{2}} d x

Take the constant out:

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

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

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{1}{u ^{2}} d u

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

Apply the Power Rule

: - \frac{1}{u}

= 2 (- \frac{1}{u})

Substitute back

u = x - 2

= 2 (- \frac{1}{x - 2})

Simplify

2 (- \frac{1}{x - 2}) : - \frac{2}{x - 2}

= - \frac{2}{x - 2}

Add a constant to the solution

= - \frac{2}{x - 2} + C

x = y^{2} - 8, x = 8

\int (\frac{x + 4}{x}) d x

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (4 x^{\frac{1}{2}} + y)

\int \frac{( x ^{2} - 3 x + 2 )}{x + 1} d x

\int_{- \infty}^{0} \frac{1}{3 - 7 x} d x
