OpenStudy (triciaal):

improper or proper? don't know definite when there are limits indefinite without limits and add the constant C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This is improper because the lower limit, 2, is undefined in the function you're integrating. So you would need to technically solve this: \[\lim_{a \rightarrow 2} \int\limits_{a}^{3}\frac{ x }{ x-2 }dx\]
