integral of-1/((x+1))

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

- ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ + C

Solution steps

\int - \frac{1}{x + 1} d x

Take the constant out:

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

= - \int \frac{1}{x + 1} d x

Apply u-substitution

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

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

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln (∣ u ∣)

= - ln ∣ u ∣

Substitute back

u = x + 1

= - ln ∣ x + 1 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= - ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ + C

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

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

\int \frac{6 x ^{2}}{( x ^{3} - 7 ) ^{4}} d x

\int \frac{3 x ^{2} + 15 x + 6}{x ^{3} + 2 x ^{2} + x} d x

\int \frac{d u}{u} d x
