integral of (x-2)/(sqrt(x))

\int \frac{x - 2}{x} d x

\frac{2}{3} x^{\frac{3}{2}} - 4 x + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x - 2}{x} d x

Expand

\frac{x - 2}{x} : x - \frac{2}{x}

= \int x - \frac{2}{x} d x

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

= \int x d x - \int \frac{2}{x} d x

\int x d x = \frac{2}{3} x^{\frac{3}{2}}

\int \frac{2}{x} d x = 4 x

= \frac{2}{3} x^{\frac{3}{2}} - 4 x

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{2}{3} x^{\frac{3}{2}} - 4 x + C
