integral of (x^4)/(1+x)

\int \frac{x ^{4}}{1 + x} d x

\frac{x ^{4}}{4} - \frac{x ^{3}}{3} + \frac{x ^{2}}{2} - x + ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x ^{4}}{1 + x} d x

Long division

\frac{x ^{4}}{1 + x} : x^{3} - x^{2} + x - 1 + \frac{1}{x + 1}

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

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

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

\int x^{3} d x = \frac{x ^{4}}{4}

\int x^{2} d x = \frac{x ^{3}}{3}

\int x d x = \frac{x ^{2}}{2}

\int 1 d x = x

\int \frac{1}{x + 1} d x = ln ∣ x + 1 ∣

= \frac{x ^{4}}{4} - \frac{x ^{3}}{3} + \frac{x ^{2}}{2} - x + ln ∣ x + 1 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{x ^{4}}{4} - \frac{x ^{3}}{3} + \frac{x ^{2}}{2} - x + ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ + C

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

\int \frac{sec ^{2} ( 3 t )}{t} d t

\int \frac{( x + 2 )}{x ^{4} + 2 x ^{3} + x ^{2}} d x

\int 3 x^{2} e^{3 x} d x

\int x^{3} (5 + x^{4})^{7} d x
