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

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

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

Solution steps

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

Expand

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

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

\int \frac{x ^{3}}{( x ^{2} + 1 ) ^{2}} d x = \frac{1}{2} (ln x^{2} + 1 + \frac{1}{x ^{2} + 1})

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

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

Simplify

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

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

Add a constant to the solution

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

\int \frac{x ^{3} + x ^{2} + 2 x + 3}{x ^{4} + 5 x ^{2} + 6} d x

\int \frac{2 x + 1}{x ^{2} - 4 x + 5} d x

\int \frac{e ^{x}}{e ^{2 x} - 2 e ^{x} + 5} d x

\int (x^{5} + 7) d x

\int \frac{6}{x 49 + x ^{2}} d x
