integral of (15)/(16+x^2)

\int \frac{15}{16 + x ^{2}} d x

\frac{15}{4} arctan (\frac{x}{4}) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{15}{16 + x ^{2}} d x

Take the constant out:

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

= 15 \cdot \int \frac{1}{16 + x ^{2}} d x

Apply Integral Substitution

= 15 \cdot \int \frac{1}{4 ( u ^{2} + 1 )} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= 15 \cdot \frac{1}{4} \cdot \int \frac{1}{u ^{2} + 1} d u

Use the common integral:

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

= 15 \cdot \frac{1}{4} arctan (u)

Substitute back

u = \frac{x}{4}

= 15 \cdot \frac{1}{4} arctan (\frac{x}{4})

Simplify

15 \cdot \frac{1}{4} arctan (\frac{x}{4}) : \frac{15}{4} arctan (\frac{x}{4})

= \frac{15}{4} arctan (\frac{x}{4})

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{15}{4} arctan (\frac{x}{4}) + C
