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

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

x^{2} - 2 x + 2 ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ - 3 + C

Solution steps

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

Factor

\frac{x ^{3}}{x ^{2} + x} : \frac{x ^{2}}{x + 1}

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

Apply u-substitution

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

Expand

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

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

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

\int 2 d u = 2 u

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln ∣ u ∣

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

Substitute back

u = x + 1

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

Simplify

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

= x^{2} - 2 x + 2 ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ - 3

Add a constant to the solution

= x^{2} - 2 x + 2 ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ - 3 + C

\int \frac{( x ^{2} )}{16 - x ^{2}} d x

\frac{d}{d x} (x^{2} h)

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

\int \frac{3 cos ( ln ∣ x ∣ )}{x} d x

x \to 0 lim (x tan (x))
