integral of (x^4-5x)/(x^3)

\int \frac{x ^{4} - 5 x}{x ^{3}} d x

\frac{x ^{2}}{2} + \frac{5}{x} + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x ^{4} - 5 x}{x ^{3}} d x

Expand

\frac{x ^{4} - 5 x}{x ^{3}} : x - \frac{5}{x ^{2}}

= \int x - \frac{5}{x ^{2}} 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 x d x - \int \frac{5}{x ^{2}} d x

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

\int \frac{5}{x ^{2}} d x = - \frac{5}{x}

= \frac{x ^{2}}{2} - (- \frac{5}{x})

Simplify

= \frac{x ^{2}}{2} + \frac{5}{x}

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{x ^{2}}{2} + \frac{5}{x} + C

\int (\frac{2}{5} x^{\frac{5}{2}} + \frac{10}{3} x^{\frac{3}{2}}) d x

\int 4 x x^{2} - 1 d x

\int \frac{11}{( x - 3 ) ( x + 8 )} d x

\int 7 y d y

\int \frac{3 x + 4}{2 x} d x
