integral of (20)/(20+e^x)

\int \frac{20}{20 + e ^{x}} d x

x - ln ∣ e^{x} + 20 ∣ + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{20}{20 + e ^{x}} d x

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= 20 \cdot \int \frac{1}{20 + e ^{x}} d x

Apply u-substitution

= 20 \cdot \int \frac{1}{u ( 20 + u )} d u

Take the partial fraction of

\frac{1}{u ( 20 + u )} : \frac{1}{20 u} - \frac{1}{20 ( u + 20 )}

= 20 \cdot \int \frac{1}{20 u} - \frac{1}{20 ( u + 20 )} d u

Apply the Sum Rule:

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

= 20 (\int \frac{1}{20 u} d u - \int \frac{1}{20 ( u + 20 )} d u)

\int \frac{1}{20 u} d u = \frac{1}{20} ln ∣ u ∣

\int \frac{1}{20 ( u + 20 )} d u = \frac{1}{20} ln ∣ u + 20 ∣

= 20 (\frac{1}{20} ln ∣ u ∣ - \frac{1}{20} ln ∣ u + 20 ∣)

Substitute back

u = e^{x}

= 20 (\frac{1}{20} ln ∣ e^{x} ∣ - \frac{1}{20} ln ∣ e^{x} + 20 ∣)

Simplify

20 (\frac{1}{20} ln ∣ e^{x} ∣ - \frac{1}{20} ln ∣ e^{x} + 20 ∣) : x - ln ∣ e^{x} + 20 ∣

= x - ln ∣ e^{x} + 20 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= x - ln ∣ e^{x} + 20 ∣ + C
