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

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

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

Solution steps

\int \frac{x ^{2}}{( x - 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

Expand

\frac{( u + 1 ) ^{2}}{u ^{3}} : \frac{1}{u} + \frac{2}{u ^{2}} + \frac{1}{u ^{3}}

= \int \frac{1}{u} + \frac{2}{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

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

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln ∣ u ∣

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

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

= ln ∣ u ∣ - \frac{2}{u} - \frac{1}{2 u ^{2}}

Substitute back

u = x - 1

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

Add a constant to the solution

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

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (\frac{5}{e ^{x}})

y^{^{'}} + 4 y = 3 sin (2 t)

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (3 x^{4} y^{2} + 2 x y^{2} - 5)

(- 1, 4), (- 3, - 2)

\int arctan (4 t) d t
