integral of 2/(2+e^x)

\int \frac{2}{2 + e ^{x}} d x

x - ln ∣ e^{x} + 2 ∣ + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{2}{2 + e ^{x}} d x

Take the constant out:

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

= 2 \cdot \int \frac{1}{2 + e ^{x}} d x

Apply u-substitution

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

= 2 \cdot \int \frac{1}{u ( 2 + u )} d u

Take the partial fraction of

\frac{1}{u ( 2 + u )} : \frac{1}{2 u} - \frac{1}{2 ( u + 2 )}

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

Apply the Sum Rule:

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

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

\int \frac{1}{2 u} d u = \frac{1}{2} ln ∣ u ∣

\int \frac{1}{2 ( u + 2 )} d u = \frac{1}{2} ln ∣ u + 2 ∣

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

Substitute back

u = e^{x}

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

Simplify

2 (\frac{1}{2} ln ∣ e^{x} ∣ - \frac{1}{2} ln ∣ e^{x} + 2 ∣) : x - ln ∣ e^{x} + 2 ∣

= x - ln ∣ e^{x} + 2 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= x - ln ∣ e^{x} + 2 ∣ + C

x \to 3 lim (7 - 3 x)

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (- 3 x^{2} - 4 x)

x \to 0 + lim (1 - ln (x))

\frac{3}{( s ^{2} + 1 ) ( s ^{2} + 9 )}

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