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

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

\frac{3}{2}

Decimal

1.5

Solution steps

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

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

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

Apply exponent rule:

\frac{1}{a ^{b}} = a^{- b}

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

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

\int_{1}^{2} x^{- 2} d x = \frac{1}{2}

\int_{1}^{2} 1 d x = 1

= \frac{1}{2} + 1

Simplify

\frac{1}{2} + 1 : \frac{3}{2}

= \frac{3}{2}

\int_{0}^{1} (4 x + 7) d x

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

\int_{0}^{\infty} 6 x e^{6 x} d x

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

\int_{1}^{2} 12 x^{3} + \frac{6}{x ^{2}} d x
