integral of ((x-2))/(x^2-7x+12)

\int \frac{( x - 2 )}{x ^{2} - 7 x + 12} d x

2 (\frac{1}{4} ln 4 x^{2} - 28 x + 48 - \frac{3}{4} (ln ∣ 2 x - 6 ∣ - ln ∣ 2 x - 8 ∣)) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x - 2}{x ^{2} - 7 x + 12} d x

Complete the square

x^{2} - 7 x + 12 : (x - \frac{7}{2})^{2} - \frac{1}{4}

= \int \frac{x - 2}{( x - \frac{7}{2} ) ^{2} - \frac{1}{4}} d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{2 ( 2 u + 3 )}{4 u ^{2} - 1} d u

= \int \frac{2 ( 2 u + 3 )}{4 u ^{2} - 1} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= 2 \cdot \int \frac{2 u + 3}{4 u ^{2} - 1} d u

Expand

\frac{2 u + 3}{4 u ^{2} - 1} : \frac{2 u}{4 u ^{2} - 1} + \frac{3}{4 u ^{2} - 1}

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 \frac{2 u}{4 u ^{2} - 1} d u + \int \frac{3}{4 u ^{2} - 1} d u)

\int \frac{2 u}{4 u ^{2} - 1} d u = \frac{1}{4} ln 4 u^{2} - 1

\int \frac{3}{4 u ^{2} - 1} d u = - \frac{3}{4} (ln ∣ 2 u + 1 ∣ - ln ∣ 2 u - 1 ∣)

= 2 (\frac{1}{4} ln 4 u^{2} - 1 - \frac{3}{4} (ln ∣ 2 u + 1 ∣ - ln ∣ 2 u - 1 ∣))

Substitute back

u = x - \frac{7}{2}

= 2 (\frac{1}{4} ln 4 (x - \frac{7}{2})^{2} - 1 - \frac{3}{4} (ln 2 (x - \frac{7}{2}) + 1 - ln 2 (x - \frac{7}{2}) - 1))

Simplify

2 (\frac{1}{4} ln 4 (x - \frac{7}{2})^{2} - 1 - \frac{3}{4} (ln 2 (x - \frac{7}{2}) + 1 - ln 2 (x - \frac{7}{2}) - 1)) : 2 (\frac{1}{4} ln 4 x^{2} - 28 x + 48 - \frac{3}{4} (ln ∣ 2 x - 6 ∣ - ln ∣ 2 x - 8 ∣))

= 2 (\frac{1}{4} ln 4 x^{2} - 28 x + 48 - \frac{3}{4} (ln ∣ 2 x - 6 ∣ - ln ∣ 2 x - 8 ∣))

Add a constant to the solution

= 2 (\frac{1}{4} ln 4 x^{2} - 28 x + 48 - \frac{3}{4} (ln ∣ 2 x - 6 ∣ - ln ∣ 2 x - 8 ∣)) + C

\int \frac{1}{x lo g _{10} ( x )} d x

\int (- 18 x^{2} - 10) csc^{2} (3 x^{3} + 5 x) d x

\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{2 x sin ( x )}{1 + cos ( x )})

\int 3 x^{2} + e^{y} d y

\frac{d}{d x} (- 2 x + 7)
