integral of (5x-12)/(x^2-4x)

\int \frac{5 x - 12}{x ^{2} - 4 x} d x

3 ln ∣ x ∣ + 2 ln ∣ x - 4 ∣ + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{5 x - 12}{x ^{2} - 4 x} d x

Take the partial fraction of

\frac{5 x - 12}{x ^{2} - 4 x} : \frac{3}{x} + \frac{2}{x - 4}

= \int \frac{3}{x} + \frac{2}{x - 4} d x

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{3}{x} d x + \int \frac{2}{x - 4} d x

\int \frac{3}{x} d x = 3 ln ∣ x ∣

\int \frac{2}{x - 4} d x = 2 ln ∣ x - 4 ∣

= 3 ln ∣ x ∣ + 2 ln ∣ x - 4 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= 3 ln ∣ x ∣ + 2 ln ∣ x - 4 ∣ + C

\frac{d}{d x} ((3 x + 7)^{2})

\int_{- 9}^{0} y + 9 d y

x \to 3 lim (x^{2} + 8 x - 2)

n = 5 \sum \infty \frac{2}{n ^{2} - 1}

\int \frac{x}{5 x - 2} d x
