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

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

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

Solution steps

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

Take the constant out:

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

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

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{u - 1}{u ^{3}} d u

= 3 \cdot \int \frac{u - 1}{u ^{3}} d u

Expand

\frac{u - 1}{u ^{3}} : \frac{1}{u ^{2}} - \frac{1}{u ^{3}}

= 3 \cdot \int \frac{1}{u ^{2}} - \frac{1}{u ^{3}} d u

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

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

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

\int \frac{1}{u ^{3}} d u = - \frac{1}{2 u ^{2}}

= 3 (- \frac{1}{u} - (- \frac{1}{2 u ^{2}}))

Substitute back

u = x + 1

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

Simplify

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

Add a constant to the solution

= 3 (- \frac{1}{x + 1} + \frac{1}{2 ( x + 1 ) ^{2}}) + C

\int t e^{t - 1} d t

\int e^{\frac{x ^{2} - 2 x}{100}} (20 x - 20) d x

\int \frac{1}{( sin ( x ) ) ^{3} cos ( x )} d x

\int \frac{7 x}{( 4 x ^{2} - 1 ) ^{3}} d x

\int \frac{x}{( x ^{2} + 4 ) ^{5}} d x
