integral of 1/(x(1+x^{10))}

\int \frac{1}{x ( 1 + x ^{10} )} d x

\frac{1}{10} (10 ln (x) - ln 1 + x^{10}) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{x ( 1 + x ^{10} )} d x

Apply u-substitution

= \int \frac{1}{10 ( u - 1 ) u} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{10} \cdot \int \frac{1}{( u - 1 ) u} d u

Take the partial fraction of

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

= \frac{1}{10} \cdot \int \frac{1}{u - 1} - \frac{1}{u} 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

= \frac{1}{10} (\int \frac{1}{u - 1} d u - \int \frac{1}{u} d u)

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

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln ∣ u ∣

= \frac{1}{10} (ln ∣ u - 1 ∣ - ln ∣ u ∣)

Substitute back

u = 1 + x^{10}

= \frac{1}{10} (ln 1 + x^{10} - 1 - ln 1 + x^{10})

Simplify

\frac{1}{10} (ln 1 + x^{10} - 1 - ln 1 + x^{10}) : \frac{1}{10} (10 ln (x) - ln 1 + x^{10})

= \frac{1}{10} (10 ln (x) - ln 1 + x^{10})

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{10} (10 ln (x) - ln 1 + x^{10}) + C
