integral of 1/(x^2+8x+7)

\int \frac{1}{x ^{2} + 8 x + 7} d x

\frac{1}{6} ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ - \frac{1}{6} ln ∣ x + 7 ∣ + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{x ^{2} + 8 x + 7} d x

Take the partial fraction of

\frac{1}{x ^{2} + 8 x + 7} : \frac{1}{6 ( x + 1 )} - \frac{1}{6 ( x + 7 )}

= \int \frac{1}{6 ( x + 1 )} - \frac{1}{6 ( x + 7 )} 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 \frac{1}{6 ( x + 1 )} d x - \int \frac{1}{6 ( x + 7 )} d x

\int \frac{1}{6 ( x + 1 )} d x = \frac{1}{6} ln ∣ x + 1 ∣

\int \frac{1}{6 ( x + 7 )} d x = \frac{1}{6} ln ∣ x + 7 ∣

= \frac{1}{6} ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ - \frac{1}{6} ln ∣ x + 7 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{6} ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ - \frac{1}{6} ln ∣ x + 7 ∣ + C

\int s^{2} d s

\int \frac{2 x}{5 x + 1} d x

\int x^{2} + 9 x d x

\int y - e^{x} z^{2} d x

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