integral from 0 to 0.8 of 1/(1-x)

\int_{0}^{0.8} \frac{1}{1 - x} d x

1.60943 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{0.8} \frac{1}{1 - x} d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int_{1}^{0.2} - \frac{1}{u} d u

= \int_{1}^{0.2} - \frac{1}{u} d u

\int_{a}^{b} f (x) d x = - \int_{b}^{a} f (x) d x, a < b

= - \int_{0.2}^{1} - \frac{1}{u} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= - (- \int_{0.2}^{1} \frac{1}{u} d u)

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln (∣ u ∣)

= - (- [ln ∣ u ∣]_{0.2}^{1})

Simplify

= [ln ∣ u ∣]_{0.2}^{1}

Compute the boundaries:

1.60943 \dots

= 1.60943 \dots

\int_{0}^{1} 1 \cdot x d x

\int_{0}^{1} (10 x) d x

\int_{- 1}^{1} \frac{6 x}{( x + 6 ) ^{2}} d x

\int_{3}^{9} 1 + x^{3} d x

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