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

integral

\frac{x ^{3} - x + 1}{x ^{3}}

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

Solution steps

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

Expand

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

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

\int 1 d x = x

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

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

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

Simplify

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

Add a constant to the solution

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

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

8 x^{- 1}

\frac{1}{( cos ( 2 x ) )}

sin^{2} (x) cos^{5} (x)

32 e^{- 4} x
