integral of (sqrt(x^2-9))/(x^3)

\int \frac{x ^{2} - 9}{x ^{3}} d x

- \frac{x ^{2} - 9}{2 x ^{2}} + \frac{1}{6} arcsec (\frac{1}{3} x) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x ^{2} - 9}{x ^{3}} d x

Apply Integration By Parts

= - \frac{x ^{2} - 9}{2 x ^{2}} - \int - \frac{1}{2 x x ^{2} - 9} d x

\int - \frac{1}{2 x x ^{2} - 9} d x = - \frac{1}{6} arcsec (\frac{1}{3} x)

= - \frac{x ^{2} - 9}{2 x ^{2}} - (- \frac{1}{6} arcsec (\frac{1}{3} x))

Simplify

= - \frac{x ^{2} - 9}{2 x ^{2}} + \frac{1}{6} arcsec (\frac{1}{3} x)

Add a constant to the solution

= - \frac{x ^{2} - 9}{2 x ^{2}} + \frac{1}{6} arcsec (\frac{1}{3} x) + C
