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

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

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

Solution steps

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

Apply u-substitution

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

Expand

\frac{u + 1}{u} : 1 + \frac{1}{u}

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

= \frac{1}{2} (\int 1 d u + \int \frac{1}{u} d u)

\int 1 d u = u

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln ∣ u ∣

= \frac{1}{2} (u + ln ∣ u ∣)

Substitute back

u = x^{2} - 1

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

Add a constant to the solution

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

\int - \frac{1600}{x ^{2}} d x

\int sin (3 x) \cdot cos (2 x) d x

\int \frac{1}{x 81 x ^{2} - 1} d x

\int t^{2} e^{t^{2}} d t

\int 3 + cos (x) d x
