integral of x/(x^2-25)

\int \frac{x}{x ^{2} - 25} d x

\frac{1}{2} ln x^{2} - 25 + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x}{x ^{2} - 25} 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} - 25

= \frac{1}{2} ln x^{2} - 25

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{2} ln x^{2} - 25 + C

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

\int \frac{x - 10}{x ^{3}} d x

\int x^{5} \cdot e^{x^{2}} d x

\int 2^{x + 3} d x
