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

integral

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

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

Solution steps

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

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{u - 1}{2 u} d u

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

Take the constant out:

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

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

Expand

\frac{u - 1}{u} : 1 - \frac{1}{u}

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int 1 - \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

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

\int 1 d u = u

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln ∣ u ∣

= \frac{1}{2} (u - ln ∣ u ∣)

Substitute back

u = x^{2} + 1

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

Add a constant to the solution

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

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

\frac{2 - 5}{x ^{2}}

sin^{7} (x) cos^{5} (x)

e^{z} (z + 1)

(x - 11)^{7}
