Question

Evaluate. Calculus question.

Answer 1

I have factored the numerator and canceled out terms. I'm stuck here

(x+2)(x-2)dx

Answer 2

Hint: Factor the numerator into (x-2)(x+2)

Answer 3

I have the weird looking swoosh thing in front of it.

Answer 4

Oh. Didn't see that reply! After factoring you should be left with just (x+2)dx

Answer 5

I see my mistake. Whats next?

Answer 6

\[\int\limits \frac{ x^{2}-4 }{ x-2 } dx = \int\limits \frac{ (x-2)(x+2) }{ (x-2) }dx\]

Answer 7

@Destinyyyy see what happens?

Answer 8

Yes. Im already past that.

Answer 9

You just apply the power rule to this indefinite integral

\[\int\limits x^{n} dx = \frac{ x^{n+1} }{ n+1 }+C\]

\[\int\limits (x+2)~dx = \frac{ x^{2} }{ 2 }+2x+C\]

Answer 10

Nevermind I figured it out
