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

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

\frac{1}{2} ln x^{2} + 2 x - 8 + C

Solution steps

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

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{1}{2 u} d u

= \int \frac{1}{2 u} d u

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int \frac{1}{u} d u

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln (∣ u ∣)

= \frac{1}{2} ln ∣ u ∣

Substitute back

u = x^{2} + 2 x - 8

= \frac{1}{2} ln x^{2} + 2 x - 8

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{2} ln x^{2} + 2 x - 8 + C

\int \frac{1}{u ( u - 1 )} d u

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

\int \frac{x ^{2} - 5 x + 16}{( 2 - x ) ^{2} ( 2 x + 1 )} d x

\int e^{- x^{2} + 2 x} d x

\int \frac{1}{( 2 sin ( x ) - cos ( x ) + 5 )} d x
