integral of (2x-3)/(x^2-5x+6)

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

ln 4 x^{2} - 20 x + 24 - 2 ln ∣ 2 x - 4 ∣ + 2 ln ∣ 2 x - 6 ∣ + C

Solution steps

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

Complete the square

x^{2} - 5 x + 6 : (x - \frac{5}{2})^{2} - \frac{1}{4}

= \int \frac{2 x - 3}{( x - \frac{5}{2} ) ^{2} - \frac{1}{4}} d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{4 ( 2 u + 2 )}{4 u ^{2} - 1} d u

= \int \frac{4 ( 2 u + 2 )}{4 u ^{2} - 1} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= 4 \cdot \int \frac{2 u + 2}{4 u ^{2} - 1} d u

Expand

\frac{2 u + 2}{4 u ^{2} - 1} : \frac{2 u}{4 u ^{2} - 1} + \frac{2}{4 u ^{2} - 1}

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

= 4 (\int \frac{2 u}{4 u ^{2} - 1} d u + \int \frac{2}{4 u ^{2} - 1} d u)

\int \frac{2 u}{4 u ^{2} - 1} d u = \frac{1}{4} ln 4 u^{2} - 1

\int \frac{2}{4 u ^{2} - 1} d u = - \frac{1}{2} ln ∣ 2 u + 1 ∣ + \frac{1}{2} ln ∣ 2 u - 1 ∣

= 4 (\frac{1}{4} ln 4 u^{2} - 1 - \frac{1}{2} ln ∣ 2 u + 1 ∣ + \frac{1}{2} ln ∣ 2 u - 1 ∣)

Substitute back

u = x - \frac{5}{2}

= 4 (\frac{1}{4} ln 4 (x - \frac{5}{2})^{2} - 1 - \frac{1}{2} ln 2 (x - \frac{5}{2}) + 1 + \frac{1}{2} ln 2 (x - \frac{5}{2}) - 1)

Simplify

4 (\frac{1}{4} ln 4 (x - \frac{5}{2})^{2} - 1 - \frac{1}{2} ln 2 (x - \frac{5}{2}) + 1 + \frac{1}{2} ln 2 (x - \frac{5}{2}) - 1) : ln 4 x^{2} - 20 x + 24 - 2 ln ∣ 2 x - 4 ∣ + 2 ln ∣ 2 x - 6 ∣

= ln 4 x^{2} - 20 x + 24 - 2 ln ∣ 2 x - 4 ∣ + 2 ln ∣ 2 x - 6 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= ln 4 x^{2} - 20 x + 24 - 2 ln ∣ 2 x - 4 ∣ + 2 ln ∣ 2 x - 6 ∣ + C

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

\int (\frac{1}{e ^{\frac{t}{4}}} - e^{\frac{t}{4}})^{2} d t

\int 10 - \frac{100}{x + 10} d x

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

\int cosh^{4} (x) sinh (x) d x
