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

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

\frac{1}{4} ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ - \frac{1}{2 ( x - 1 )} - \frac{1}{4} ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ + C

Solution steps

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

Take the partial fraction of

\frac{x}{x ^{3} - x ^{2} - x + 1} : \frac{1}{4 ( x - 1 )} + \frac{1}{2 ( x - 1 ) ^{2}} - \frac{1}{4 ( x + 1 )}

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

\int \frac{1}{4 ( x - 1 )} d x = \frac{1}{4} ln ∣ x - 1 ∣

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

\int \frac{1}{4 ( x + 1 )} d x = \frac{1}{4} ln ∣ x + 1 ∣

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

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{4} ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ - \frac{1}{2 ( x - 1 )} - \frac{1}{4} ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ + C

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

\int x^{3} 1 + 100 x^{2} d x

\int \frac{x ^{2}}{25 - 16 x ^{2}} d x

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

\int \frac{sin ( x ) - 1}{cos ( x ) + x} d x
