integral from 0 to 4 of (x-1)/(x+1)

\int_{0}^{4} \frac{x - 1}{x + 1} d x

- 2 ln (5) + 4

Decimal Notation

0.78112 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{4} \frac{x - 1}{x + 1} d x

\frac{x - 1}{x + 1} = - \frac{2}{x + 1} + 1

= \int_{0}^{4} - \frac{2}{x + 1} + 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_{0}^{4} \frac{2}{x + 1} d x + \int_{0}^{4} 1 d x

\int_{0}^{4} \frac{2}{x + 1} d x = 2 ln (5)

\int_{0}^{4} 1 d x = 4

= - 2 ln (5) + 4

\int_{0}^{1} x (3 x^{2}) d x

\int_{0}^{16} x d x

\int_{0}^{3} \frac{1}{( 2 - x ) ^{2}} d x

\int_{2}^{2} 1 + t^{3} d t

\int_{0}^{1} \frac{x}{( x ^{2} + 1 ) ^{2}} d x
