integral of x/(sqrt(2+x^2))

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

2 + x^{2} + C

Solution steps

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

Apply u-substitution

= \int \frac{1}{2 u} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int \frac{1}{u} d u

Apply the Power Rule

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 u^{\frac{1}{2}}

Substitute back

u = 2 + x^{2}

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 (2 + x^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}

Simplify

\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 (2 + x^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}} : 2 + x^{2}

= 2 + x^{2}

Add a constant to the solution

= 2 + x^{2} + C
