#6 page 522? that's a u-substitution. set u = the denominator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes that one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont get what you mean by that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the integrand is \(\large \frac{2t-1}{t^2-t+2} \)... set u= the denominator of this fraction.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then you need to calculate du = ???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\int\limits \frac{2t - 1}{t^2-t+2}\mathrm{d}t\] let \[u = t^2 - t + 2\] \[\frac{\mathrm{d}u}{\mathrm{d}t} =2t -1\] \[\mathrm{d}u = (2t - 1) \mathrm{d}t\] Can you go on from here? If this looks unfamiliar try watching this video (should make u-substution clear): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qclrs-1rpKI

@Meepi i got (-1/t^2+t=+2)x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know if its right tho

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Substitute u = t^2 - t + 2 and du = (2t - 1) dt into the original problem \[\int\limits \frac{2t - 1}{t^2 - t + 2} dt = \int\limits \frac{1}{u} du \] with u = t^2 - t + 2 Solve the integral and substitute u back in
