integral of (2x)/(x^2-25)

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

ln x^{2} - 25 + C

Solution steps

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

Take the constant out:

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

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

Apply u-substitution

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

= 2 \cdot \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

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

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln (∣ u ∣)

= 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} ln ∣ u ∣

Substitute back

u = x^{2} - 25

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

Simplify

2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} ln x^{2} - 25 : ln x^{2} - 25

= ln x^{2} - 25

Add a constant to the solution

= ln x^{2} - 25 + C

\int \frac{1}{t ^{2} + 2 t - 10} d t

\int cos (x) cos (6 sin (x)) d x

\int sin (2 x) tan (x) d x

\int \frac{3}{x ^{2} - 3 x} d x

\int - 3 cos (x^{4}) d x
