integral from 2 to 3 of 1/(x^2+3x+2)

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

- ln (\frac{15}{16})

Decimal Notation

0.06453 \dots

Solution steps

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

Complete the square

x^{2} + 3 x + 2 : (x + \frac{3}{2})^{2} - \frac{1}{4}

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

Apply u-substitution

: \int_{\frac{7}{2}}^{\frac{9}{2}} \frac{4}{4 u ^{2} - 1} d u

= \int_{\frac{7}{2}}^{\frac{9}{2}} \frac{4}{4 u ^{2} - 1} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= 4 \cdot \int_{\frac{7}{2}}^{\frac{9}{2}} \frac{1}{4 u ^{2} - 1} d u

Factor

4 u^{2} - 1 : - (- 4 u^{2} + 1)

= 4 \cdot \int_{\frac{7}{2}}^{\frac{9}{2}} \frac{1}{- ( - 4 u ^{2} + 1 )} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= 4 (- \int_{\frac{7}{2}}^{\frac{9}{2}} \frac{1}{- 4 u ^{2} + 1} d u)

Apply Integral Substitution

= 4 (- \int_{7}^{9} \frac{1}{2 ( - v ^{2} + 1 )} d v)

Take the constant out:

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

= 4 (- \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int_{7}^{9} \frac{1}{- v ^{2} + 1} d v)

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{- v ^{2} + 1} d v = \frac{ln ∣ v + 1 ∣}{2} - \frac{ln ∣ v - 1 ∣}{2}

= 4 (- \frac{1}{2} [\frac{ln ∣ v + 1 ∣}{2} - \frac{ln ∣ v - 1 ∣}{2}]_{7}^{9})

Simplify

4 (- \frac{1}{2} [\frac{ln ∣ v + 1 ∣}{2} - \frac{ln ∣ v - 1 ∣}{2}]_{7}^{9}) : - 2 [\frac{1}{2} (ln ∣ v + 1 ∣ - ln ∣ v - 1 ∣)]_{7}^{9}

= - 2 [\frac{1}{2} (ln ∣ v + 1 ∣ - ln ∣ v - 1 ∣)]_{7}^{9}

Compute the boundaries:

\frac{ln ( 10 ) - 6 ln ( 2 ) + ln ( 6 )}{2}

= - 2 \cdot \frac{ln ( 10 ) - 6 ln ( 2 ) + ln ( 6 )}{2}

Simplify

= - ln (\frac{15}{16})

\int_{y^{2}}^{y} \frac{y}{x} d x

\int_{0}^{8} 2 x d x

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

\int_{0}^{2} x^{2} + 5 d x

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