hey guys help me with this
\[\int\limits2x+3/(x-1)(x^2+1) dx = \log{(x-1)^{5/2} (x^2+1)^a} -1/2\tan^{-1} x + A\]
A= constant a=? its log to the base e
@Kainui @rational @ParthKohli
@amistre64 integration help
@ikram002p @ParthKohli

my latex coding fails to load to parsing it might be cumbersome
integrate 2x+3/(x-1)(x^2+1) dx = \log{(x-1)^{5/2} (x^2+1)^a} -1/2\tan^{-1} x + A yeah, im not sure what im looking at ....
\(\int\limits2x+3/(x-1)(x^2+1) dx =\\ \log{(x-1)^{5/2} (x^2+1)^a} -1/2\tan^{-1} x + A\)
yeah
my idea would be to take the derivative of the right hand side
i dont wanna make guesses, can u really evaluate this integral ?
integral of f'(x) = f(x)+A d/dx(integral of f'(x)) = d/dx(f(x)+A) f'(x) = d/dx(f(x)+A)
but is constant or what ?
A------->constant a------->value to be found
take the derivative of the right side and equate it to the left side
ok :3
im finding this difficult guys :(
you can possibly split the fraction ... decompose it to see how it works into the right side . might be easier might not
\(( \log{(x-1)^{5/2} (x^2+1)^a} -1/2\tan^{-1} x + A)'\)
@ikram002p i should take the derivate of this right
2x+3 A Bx+C ----------- = ----- + ------ (x-1)(x^2+1) x-1 x^2+1 2x+3 = A(x^2+1) + (Bx+C)(x-1) let x=1 5 = 2A, A = 5/2 let x=0 3 = 5/2 - C, C = -1/2 let x=-1 1 = 5 + 2B +1 B = -5/2 right?
wait let me read
yep
5/2 ln(x-1) - int (5x+1)/(2x^2+2) thats what i get so far
or the rightest term -1/2 int [5x/(x^2+1)] -1/2 int[ 1/(x^2+1)] that gets us to the -1/2 tan^-1 x so its that 5x part we have to work with
-5/2 int [x/(x^2+1)] -5/4 int [2x/(x^2+1)] -5/4 log(x^2+1)
so 5/2 log(x-1) -5/4 log(x^2+1) = log{ (x-1)^{5/2} (x^2+1)^a} log(x-1)^(5/2) + log(x^2+1)^(-5/4) = log{ (x-1)^{5/2} (x^2+1)^a} log (x-1)^(5/2) (x^2+1)^(-5/4) = log{ (x-1)^{5/2} (x^2+1)^a}
as long as i dint mess it up along the way :) that seems fair to me
hmm
the trick i spose is in decomposing the left side if you are having issues with deriving the right side
wish my latex decoding was working :/
yep @amistre64 so the value is -5/4 thats right thank u soooooooooooo much @amistre64
