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

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

arctan (x) + ln ∣ x ∣ + C

Solution steps

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

Expand

\frac{x ^{2} + x + 1}{x ^{3} + x} : \frac{x ^{2}}{x ^{3} + x} + \frac{x}{x ^{3} + x} + \frac{1}{x ^{3} + 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{x ^{2}}{x ^{3} + x} d x + \int \frac{x}{x ^{3} + x} d x + \int \frac{1}{x ^{3} + x} d x

\int \frac{x ^{2}}{x ^{3} + x} d x = \frac{1}{2} ln x^{2} + 1

\int \frac{x}{x ^{3} + x} d x = arctan (x)

\int \frac{1}{x ^{3} + x} d x = ln ∣ x ∣ - \frac{1}{2} ln x^{2} + 1

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

Simplify

\frac{1}{2} ln x^{2} + 1 + arctan (x) + ln ∣ x ∣ - \frac{1}{2} ln x^{2} + 1 : arctan (x) + ln ∣ x ∣

= arctan (x) + ln ∣ x ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= arctan (x) + ln ∣ x ∣ + C

\int e^{x} (2 x + 5) d x

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

\int sin (x) + sin (2 x) d x

\int \frac{( 1 + sin ( x ) )}{1 - sin ( x )} d x

\int - \frac{1}{2 t} d t
