integral of ((x-1))/(x+1)

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

- 2 ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ + x + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x - 1}{x + 1} d x

\frac{x - 1}{x + 1} = - \frac{2}{x + 1} + 1

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

\int \frac{2}{x + 1} d x = 2 ln ∣ x + 1 ∣

\int 1 d x = x

= - 2 ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ + x

Add a constant to the solution

= - 2 ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ + x + C

\int (6 x + 23)^{- 2} d x

\int x^{7} cos (x^{8}) d x

\int \frac{3 - 5 x}{x ^{3} - 6 x ^{2} + 9 x} d x

\int x (1 - 2 x)^{5} d x

\int \frac{( 1 + x ^{2} )}{( 1 + x ^{4} )} d x
