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

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

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

Solution steps

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

Apply u-substitution

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

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

Expand

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

= \int u - 2 + \frac{1}{u} 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

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

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

\int 2 d u = 2 u

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln ∣ u ∣

= \frac{u ^{2}}{2} - 2 u + ln ∣ u ∣

Substitute back

u = 1 + x

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

Add a constant to the solution

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

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

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

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

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

\int (x^{2} - 4 x + 4)^{\frac{4}{3}} (3 x - 6) d x
