integral

OpenStudy (anonymous):

stuck on \[I=\int\limits \frac{x+\sqrt{x+1}}{x+2}dx\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@mathmath333

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

try substitute \(u=\sqrt{x+1}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I tried something like this \[I=\int\limits dx-2 \int\limits \frac{dx}{x+2}+\int\limits \frac{\sqrt{x+1}}{x+2}dx\]

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

this one also looks good

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[u=\sqrt{x+1}\]\[dx=2\times u \times du\] third integral, \[2\int\limits \frac{u^2}{u^2+1}du\]

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

yes solve it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ill give it a try

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

u can apply long division

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

\(\large \begin{align} \color{black}{\dfrac{u^2}{u^2+1}\hspace{.33em}\\~\\ =\dfrac{u^2+1-1}{u^2+1}\hspace{.33em}\\~\\ =1-\dfrac{1}{u^2+1}\hspace{.33em}\\~\\ }\end{align}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[I=x-2\log|x+1|+2\sqrt{x+1}-2\tan^-1\sqrt{x+1}+C\] ?

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

thats correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Answer in book is \[I=(x+1)+2\sqrt{x+1}-2\log|x+2|-2\tan^-1\sqrt{x+1}+C\]

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

answer books has an extra one which is a typo
