integral of ((x^2-2)(x^2+2))/(4x^3)

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

\frac{1}{4} (\frac{x ^{2}}{2} + \frac{2}{x ^{2}}) + C

Solution steps

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

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{4} \cdot \int \frac{( x ^{2} - 2 ) ( x ^{2} + 2 )}{x ^{3}} d x

Expand

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

= \frac{1}{4} \cdot \int x - \frac{4}{x ^{3}} 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

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

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

\int \frac{4}{x ^{3}} d x = - \frac{2}{x ^{2}}

= \frac{1}{4} (\frac{x ^{2}}{2} - (- \frac{2}{x ^{2}}))

Simplify

= \frac{1}{4} (\frac{x ^{2}}{2} + \frac{2}{x ^{2}})

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{4} (\frac{x ^{2}}{2} + \frac{2}{x ^{2}}) + C

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

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

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

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