integral of (x-2)/(x+2)

\int \frac{x - 2}{x + 2} d x

x + 2 - 4 ln ∣ x + 2 ∣ + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x - 2}{x + 2} d x

Expand

\frac{x - 2}{x + 2} : \frac{x}{x + 2} - \frac{2}{x + 2}

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{x}{x + 2} d x - \int \frac{2}{x + 2} d x

\int \frac{x}{x + 2} d x = x + 2 - 2 ln ∣ x + 2 ∣

\int \frac{2}{x + 2} d x = 2 ln ∣ x + 2 ∣

= x + 2 - 2 ln ∣ x + 2 ∣ - 2 ln ∣ x + 2 ∣

Simplify

= x + 2 - 4 ln ∣ x + 2 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= x + 2 - 4 ln ∣ x + 2 ∣ + C

y = x^{3} - 3 x + 5, (3, 23)

\frac{d}{d t} (5 sin (t) cos (t))

\int_{1}^{2} ln (3 x) d x

\int \frac{sin ( 2 x )}{33 + cos ^{2} ( x )} d x
