integral of (48x^2)/((x-15)(x+5)^2)

\int \frac{48 x ^{2}}{( x - 15 ) ( x + 5 ) ^{2}} d x

48 (\frac{9}{16} ln ∣ x - 15 ∣ + \frac{7}{16} ln ∣ x + 5 ∣ + \frac{5}{4 ( x + 5 )}) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{48 x ^{2}}{( x - 15 ) ( x + 5 ) ^{2}} d x

Take the constant out:

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

= 48 \cdot \int \frac{x ^{2}}{( x - 15 ) ( x + 5 ) ^{2}} d x

Take the partial fraction of

\frac{x ^{2}}{( x - 15 ) ( x + 5 ) ^{2}} : \frac{9}{16 ( x - 15 )} + \frac{7}{16 ( x + 5 )} - \frac{5}{4 ( x + 5 ) ^{2}}

= 48 \cdot \int \frac{9}{16 ( x - 15 )} + \frac{7}{16 ( x + 5 )} - \frac{5}{4 ( x + 5 ) ^{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

= 48 (\int \frac{9}{16 ( x - 15 )} d x + \int \frac{7}{16 ( x + 5 )} d x - \int \frac{5}{4 ( x + 5 ) ^{2}} d x)

\int \frac{9}{16 ( x - 15 )} d x = \frac{9}{16} ln ∣ x - 15 ∣

\int \frac{7}{16 ( x + 5 )} d x = \frac{7}{16} ln ∣ x + 5 ∣

\int \frac{5}{4 ( x + 5 ) ^{2}} d x = - \frac{5}{4 ( x + 5 )}

= 48 (\frac{9}{16} ln ∣ x - 15 ∣ + \frac{7}{16} ln ∣ x + 5 ∣ - (- \frac{5}{4 ( x + 5 )}))

Simplify

= 48 (\frac{9}{16} ln ∣ x - 15 ∣ + \frac{7}{16} ln ∣ x + 5 ∣ + \frac{5}{4 ( x + 5 )})

Add a constant to the solution

= 48 (\frac{9}{16} ln ∣ x - 15 ∣ + \frac{7}{16} ln ∣ x + 5 ∣ + \frac{5}{4 ( x + 5 )}) + C
