integral of x/(1-x^2)

\int \frac{x}{1 - x ^{2}} d x

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

Solution steps

\int \frac{x}{1 - x ^{2}} d x

Apply u-substitution

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

Take the constant out:

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

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

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln (∣ u ∣)

= - \frac{1}{2} ln ∣ u ∣

Substitute back

u = 1 - x^{2}

= - \frac{1}{2} ln 1 - x^{2}

Add a constant to the solution

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

\frac{d ^{2}}{d x ^{2}} (\frac{x}{x ^{2} - 6})

\frac{d y}{d x} + 3 y = e^{4 x}

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (2 k^{3} s^{2})

\int \frac{- 2}{x ^{2} - 1} d x

x \to 0 + lim (\frac{x ^{2} - 15}{x})
