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

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

- \frac{1}{4} ln ∣ 3 x + 1 ∣ + \frac{1}{4} ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ + C

Solution steps

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

Take the partial fraction of

\frac{1}{3 x ^{2} - 2 x - 1} : - \frac{3}{4 ( 3 x + 1 )} + \frac{1}{4 ( x - 1 )}

= \int - \frac{3}{4 ( 3 x + 1 )} + \frac{1}{4 ( x - 1 )} 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{3}{4 ( 3 x + 1 )} d x + \int \frac{1}{4 ( x - 1 )} d x

\int \frac{3}{4 ( 3 x + 1 )} d x = \frac{1}{4} ln ∣ 3 x + 1 ∣

\int \frac{1}{4 ( x - 1 )} d x = \frac{1}{4} ln ∣ x - 1 ∣

= - \frac{1}{4} ln ∣ 3 x + 1 ∣ + \frac{1}{4} ln ∣ x - 1 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= - \frac{1}{4} ln ∣ 3 x + 1 ∣ + \frac{1}{4} ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ + C

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

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

\int 6 e^{\frac{t}{100}} d t

\int x \cdot x^{9} d x

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