integral of (3x^2-4)/(x^3-4x)

\int \frac{3 x ^{2} - 4}{x ^{3} - 4 x} d x

ln x^{3} - 4 x + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{3 x ^{2} - 4}{x ^{3} - 4 x} d x

Apply u-substitution

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

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln (∣ u ∣)

= ln ∣ u ∣

Substitute back

u = x^{3} - 4 x

= ln x^{3} - 4 x

Add a constant to the solution

= ln x^{3} - 4 x + C
