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

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

- 3 ln ∣ x ∣ + 3 ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ + \frac{2}{x} + C

Solution steps

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

Expand

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

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

\int \frac{x}{x ^{2} ( x - 1 )} d x = - ln ∣ x ∣ + ln ∣ x - 1 ∣

\int \frac{2}{x ^{2} ( x - 1 )} d x = 2 (- ln ∣ x ∣ + \frac{1}{x} + ln ∣ x - 1 ∣)

= - ln ∣ x ∣ + ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ + 2 (- ln ∣ x ∣ + \frac{1}{x} + ln ∣ x - 1 ∣)

Simplify

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

= - 3 ln ∣ x ∣ + 3 ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ + \frac{2}{x}

Add a constant to the solution

= - 3 ln ∣ x ∣ + 3 ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ + \frac{2}{x} + C

\int x + 16 d x

\int t (2 t^{2} + 4)^{3} d t

\int \frac{x}{2 + 3 x} d x

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

\int 20 cos (x) d x
