integral of 3/(x^2-3x)

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

- ln ∣ x ∣ + ln ∣ x - 3 ∣ + C

Solution steps

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

Take the constant out:

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

= 3 \cdot \int \frac{1}{x ^{2} - 3 x} d x

Take the partial fraction of

\frac{1}{x ^{2} - 3 x} : - \frac{1}{3 x} + \frac{1}{3 ( x - 3 )}

= 3 \cdot \int - \frac{1}{3 x} + \frac{1}{3 ( x - 3 )} 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

= 3 (- \int \frac{1}{3 x} d x + \int \frac{1}{3 ( x - 3 )} d x)

\int \frac{1}{3 x} d x = \frac{1}{3} ln ∣ x ∣

\int \frac{1}{3 ( x - 3 )} d x = \frac{1}{3} ln ∣ x - 3 ∣

= 3 (- \frac{1}{3} ln ∣ x ∣ + \frac{1}{3} ln ∣ x - 3 ∣)

Simplify

3 (- \frac{1}{3} ln ∣ x ∣ + \frac{1}{3} ln ∣ x - 3 ∣) : - ln ∣ x ∣ + ln ∣ x - 3 ∣

= - ln ∣ x ∣ + ln ∣ x - 3 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= - ln ∣ x ∣ + ln ∣ x - 3 ∣ + C

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

\int x^{5} ln (3 x^{3}) d x

\int \frac{10}{x ^{6}} d x

\int \frac{1}{4 x - 5} d x

\int \frac{x ^{2} + 1}{( x - 2 ) ^{2} ( x - 3 )} d x
