integral of (x^3+3)/(x^2+1)

\int \frac{x ^{3} + 3}{x ^{2} + 1} d x

\frac{1}{2} (x^{2} + 1 - ln x^{2} + 1) + 3 arctan (x) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x ^{3} + 3}{x ^{2} + 1} d x

Expand

\frac{x ^{3} + 3}{x ^{2} + 1} : \frac{x ^{3}}{x ^{2} + 1} + \frac{3}{x ^{2} + 1}

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{x ^{3}}{x ^{2} + 1} d x + \int \frac{3}{x ^{2} + 1} d x

\int \frac{x ^{3}}{x ^{2} + 1} d x = \frac{1}{2} (x^{2} + 1 - ln x^{2} + 1)

\int \frac{3}{x ^{2} + 1} d x = 3 arctan (x)

= \frac{1}{2} (x^{2} + 1 - ln x^{2} + 1) + 3 arctan (x)

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{2} (x^{2} + 1 - ln x^{2} + 1) + 3 arctan (x) + C
