integral of ((x-4))/(x^2)

\int \frac{( x - 4 )}{x ^{2}} d x

ln ∣ x ∣ + \frac{4}{x} + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x - 4}{x ^{2}} d x

Expand

\frac{x - 4}{x ^{2}} : \frac{1}{x} - \frac{4}{x ^{2}}

= \int \frac{1}{x} - \frac{4}{x ^{2}} 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

= \int \frac{1}{x} d x - \int \frac{4}{x ^{2}} d x

\int \frac{1}{x} d x = ln ∣ x ∣

\int \frac{4}{x ^{2}} d x = - \frac{4}{x}

= ln ∣ x ∣ - (- \frac{4}{x})

Simplify

= ln ∣ x ∣ + \frac{4}{x}

Add a constant to the solution

= ln ∣ x ∣ + \frac{4}{x} + C

\int 5 x^{4} x^{5} + 3 d x

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

\int \frac{3}{4} x^{3} d x

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

\int x e^{2 x - 1} d x
