integral of x/(x-15)

\int \frac{x}{x - 15} d x

x - 15 + 15 ln ∣ x - 15 ∣ + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x}{x - 15} d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{u + 15}{u} d u

= \int \frac{u + 15}{u} d u

Expand

\frac{u + 15}{u} : 1 + \frac{15}{u}

= \int 1 + \frac{15}{u} d u

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

= \int 1 d u + \int \frac{15}{u} d u

\int 1 d u = u

\int \frac{15}{u} d u = 15 ln ∣ u ∣

= u + 15 ln ∣ u ∣

Substitute back

u = x - 15

= x - 15 + 15 ln ∣ x - 15 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= x - 15 + 15 ln ∣ x - 15 ∣ + C

\int \frac{x ^{3} + x + 1}{x ^{3} + x} d x

\int cos (θ) tan (θ) d θ

\int (2 x y^{2} - y^{3}) d x

\int 60 (1 + x^{2}) (7 + 15 x + 5 x^{3})^{12} d x

\int 10 e^{t} - t e^{t} + 1 d t
