integral of (2x^2-x-4)/(x^2(x+1))

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

3 ln ∣ x ∣ + \frac{4}{x} - ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ + C

Solution steps

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

Take the partial fraction of

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

= \int \frac{3}{x} - \frac{4}{x ^{2}} - \frac{1}{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{3}{x} d x - \int \frac{4}{x ^{2}} d x - \int \frac{1}{x + 1} d x

\int \frac{3}{x} d x = 3 ln ∣ x ∣

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

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

= 3 ln ∣ x ∣ - (- \frac{4}{x}) - ln ∣ x + 1 ∣

Simplify

= 3 ln ∣ x ∣ + \frac{4}{x} - ln ∣ x + 1 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= 3 ln ∣ x ∣ + \frac{4}{x} - ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ + C

\int tan^{3} (x) sec (x) d x

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

\int - 3 e^{\frac{- x}{3}} d x

\int \frac{1}{1 - 2 y} d y

\int cos^{4} (4 x) \cdot sin^{2} (4 x) d x
