integral of (x^3-x+1)/(x^2)

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

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

Solution steps

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

Expand

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

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

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

\int \frac{1}{x} d x = ln ∣ x ∣

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

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

Add a constant to the solution

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

\int \frac{1}{25 + 36 x ^{2}} d x

\int \frac{2 x}{( x ^{2} + 5 ) ^{2}} d x

\int cos^{3} (z) d z

\int sec^{2} (x) e^{1 + t a n (x)} d x

\int - 1 ln (\frac{2}{5} x) d x
