integral of (-2)/(x^3)

integral

\frac{- 2}{x ^{3}}

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

Solution steps

\int \frac{- 2}{x ^{3}} d x

Take the constant out:

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

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

Apply the Power Rule

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

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

Simplify

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

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

Add a constant to the solution

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

\frac{ln ( x ^{2} )}{x ^{3}}

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

\frac{x}{sin ^{2} ( x )}

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

\frac{1}{( x - x ^{\frac{1}{2}} )}
