integral of 1/(x^2-7x)

\int \frac{1}{x ^{2} - 7 x} d x

- \frac{1}{7} ln ∣ x ∣ + \frac{1}{7} ln ∣ x - 7 ∣ + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{x ^{2} - 7 x} d x

Take the partial fraction of

\frac{1}{x ^{2} - 7 x} : - \frac{1}{7 x} + \frac{1}{7 ( x - 7 )}

= \int - \frac{1}{7 x} + \frac{1}{7 ( x - 7 )} 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 \frac{1}{7 x} d x + \int \frac{1}{7 ( x - 7 )} d x

\int \frac{1}{7 x} d x = \frac{1}{7} ln ∣ x ∣

\int \frac{1}{7 ( x - 7 )} d x = \frac{1}{7} ln ∣ x - 7 ∣

= - \frac{1}{7} ln ∣ x ∣ + \frac{1}{7} ln ∣ x - 7 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= - \frac{1}{7} ln ∣ x ∣ + \frac{1}{7} ln ∣ x - 7 ∣ + C

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

\int x^{2} cos (8 x + 1) d x

\int \frac{2 x - 4}{( x - 3 ) ( x - 4 ) ^{2}} d x

\int x ln (9 + x^{2}) d x

\int \frac{3 x ^{2} - 2}{2 x ^{3} - 4 x} d x
