integral of (x+7)/(x^2+3x+2)

\int \frac{x + 7}{x ^{2} + 3 x + 2} d x

6 ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ - 5 ln ∣ x + 2 ∣ + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x + 7}{x ^{2} + 3 x + 2} d x

Take the partial fraction of

\frac{x + 7}{x ^{2} + 3 x + 2} : \frac{6}{x + 1} - \frac{5}{x + 2}

= \int \frac{6}{x + 1} - \frac{5}{x + 2} 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 \frac{6}{x + 1} d x - \int \frac{5}{x + 2} d x

\int \frac{6}{x + 1} d x = 6 ln ∣ x + 1 ∣

\int \frac{5}{x + 2} d x = 5 ln ∣ x + 2 ∣

= 6 ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ - 5 ln ∣ x + 2 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= 6 ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ - 5 ln ∣ x + 2 ∣ + C
