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

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

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

Solution steps

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

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{u - 1}{2 u ^{3}} d u

= \int \frac{u - 1}{2 u ^{3}} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int \frac{u - 1}{u ^{3}} d u

Expand

\frac{u - 1}{u ^{3}} : \frac{1}{u ^{2}} - \frac{1}{u ^{3}}

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int \frac{1}{u ^{2}} - \frac{1}{u ^{3}} 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

= \frac{1}{2} (\int \frac{1}{u ^{2}} d u - \int \frac{1}{u ^{3}} d u)

\int \frac{1}{u ^{2}} d u = - \frac{1}{u}

\int \frac{1}{u ^{3}} d u = - \frac{1}{2 u ^{2}}

= \frac{1}{2} (- \frac{1}{u} - (- \frac{1}{2 u ^{2}}))

Substitute back

u = x^{2} + 1

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

Simplify

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

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

Add a constant to the solution

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

\int \frac{1}{1 - z ^{2}} d z

x \to 1 + lim (e^{l n (l n (x))})

e^{- y}

\int_{1}^{5} \frac{6}{x ^{2}} d x

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (5 2 x)
