integrate this one please.
\[\int\limits_{}^{} \frac{\sqrt{x+9}}{x} dx\]
@amistre64
difficult, indeed :D
Try \(x+9 = t^{2}\) Then, you'll probably need to use partial fractions.
can we rewrite it?\[\sqrt{\frac{x+9}{x^2}}\] is a thought i have, then split that or work about it
@FoolAroundMath i have already tried that, and i got a wrong answer, i don;t know where i got wrong, @amistre64 i'll try it.
a complicated by parts might be suitable as well http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=integrate+sqrt%28x%2B9%29%2Fx but i gotsta feed the kids, good luck
\(x+9 = t^{2} \implies dx = 2t \text{ d}t\) \[\int \frac{2t^{2}}{t^{2}-9}dt = \int \frac{2(t^{2}-9)+18}{t^{2}-9}dt = \int (2 + \frac{18}{t^{2}-9})dt\]
@amistre64 my answer was \[2\sqrt{x+9} -3 \ln (\sqrt{x+9} +3)+3 \ln(\sqrt{x+9}-3) +C\]
so is it a correct answer? thought it was wrong.
It's correct but you need a \(|.|\) sign in the \(\ln{(|\sqrt{x+9}-3|)} \). because integral of \(\int dt/t = ln(|t|)\)
yes, it should have had. i just forgot it while typing here.
