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

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

ln ∣ x ∣ - \frac{1}{x} + C

Solution steps

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

\int \frac{1}{x} d x = ln ∣ x ∣

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

= ln ∣ x ∣ - \frac{1}{x}

Add a constant to the solution

= ln ∣ x ∣ - \frac{1}{x} + C

\int 16 x^{2} (64 x^{3} + 1)^{12} d x

\int 5^{s i n (x)} \cdot cos (x) d x

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

\int x^{2} 3 x^{3} + 9 d x

\int \frac{1}{5 x - 7} d x
