integral of 5/((x-8)(x-3))

\int \frac{5}{( x - 8 ) ( x - 3 )} d x

ln ∣ x - 8 ∣ - ln ∣ x - 3 ∣ + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{5}{( x - 8 ) ( x - 3 )} d x

Take the constant out:

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

= 5 \cdot \int \frac{1}{( x - 8 ) ( x - 3 )} d x

Take the partial fraction of

\frac{1}{( x - 8 ) ( x - 3 )} : \frac{1}{5 ( x - 8 )} - \frac{1}{5 ( x - 3 )}

= 5 \cdot \int \frac{1}{5 ( x - 8 )} - \frac{1}{5 ( x - 3 )} 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

= 5 (\int \frac{1}{5 ( x - 8 )} d x - \int \frac{1}{5 ( x - 3 )} d x)

\int \frac{1}{5 ( x - 8 )} d x = \frac{1}{5} ln ∣ x - 8 ∣

\int \frac{1}{5 ( x - 3 )} d x = \frac{1}{5} ln ∣ x - 3 ∣

= 5 (\frac{1}{5} ln ∣ x - 8 ∣ - \frac{1}{5} ln ∣ x - 3 ∣)

Simplify

5 (\frac{1}{5} ln ∣ x - 8 ∣ - \frac{1}{5} ln ∣ x - 3 ∣) : ln ∣ x - 8 ∣ - ln ∣ x - 3 ∣

= ln ∣ x - 8 ∣ - ln ∣ x - 3 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= ln ∣ x - 8 ∣ - ln ∣ x - 3 ∣ + C

\int x^{3} arctan (x^{2}) d x

\int cos^{2} (2 t) d t

\int x 7 x + 8 d x

\int 3 x^{5} (5 x^{6} - 2)^{9} d x

\int \frac{x ^{6} + 1}{x ^{4} + 1} d x
