integral of (2x-1)/((x+1)^3)

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

- \frac{2}{x + 1} + \frac{1}{( x + 1 ) ^{2}} + \frac{1}{2 ( x + 1 ) ^{2}} + C

Solution steps

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

Expand

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

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

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

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

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

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

Simplify

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

Add a constant to the solution

= - \frac{2}{x + 1} + \frac{1}{( x + 1 ) ^{2}} + \frac{1}{2 ( x + 1 ) ^{2}} + C

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

\int \frac{x - 3}{( x + 4 ) ( x - 5 )} d x

\int sec (θ) (sec (θ) + tan (x)) d θ

\int \frac{1}{49 + 16 x ^{2}} d x

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