integral of ((-2)/x)

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

- 2 ln ∣ x ∣ + C

Solution steps

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

Take the constant out:

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

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

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{x} d x = ln (∣ x ∣)

= - 2 ln ∣ x ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= - 2 ln ∣ x ∣ + C

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

\int \frac{6 x ^{3} - 6 x}{1 - 3 x ^{2} + 2 x ^{3}} d x

\int \frac{5 x}{25 - x ^{2}} d x

\int \frac{arcsin ( t )}{1 - t ^{2}} d t

\int \frac{( x + 2 )}{( x - 5 ) ( x + 3 )} d x
