Show that,

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\int\limits_{}^{}\frac{2-x}{4x^{2}+4x-3}=-\frac{1}{8}\ln \left| 4x^{2}+4x-3 \right|+\frac{5}{16}\ln \left| \frac{2x-1}{2x+3} \right|+C\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

at first glance i think i will approach it by factoring the denominator and then solve with partial fraction. but the answer doest seems to give me the RHS

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did you try completing the square of the denominator?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o i try 1st

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\int\limits_{}^{}\frac{2-x}{(x+\frac{1}{2})^{2}-\frac{1}{4}}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o.o so i separate them?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how did you get that 1/4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oo omg ererer thr's a 4 infront of the bracket

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah, i factored that 4 out of the integral so now i have 1/4*integral

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is what i have so far...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its \[\frac{1}{2}\int\limits_{}^{}\frac{1}{u^{2}-1}-\frac{1}{4}\int\limits_{}^{}\frac{u-\frac{1}{2}}{u^{2}-1}\]?
