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

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

2 ln ∣ x ∣ - \frac{3}{x} + C

Solution steps

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

\int \frac{2}{x} d x = 2 ln ∣ x ∣

\int \frac{3}{x ^{2}} d x = - \frac{3}{x}

= 2 ln ∣ x ∣ - \frac{3}{x}

Add a constant to the solution

= 2 ln ∣ x ∣ - \frac{3}{x} + C
