integral of (x^2+8x+9)/((x-1)(x+2)^2)

\int \frac{x ^{2} + 8 x + 9}{( x - 1 ) ( x + 2 ) ^{2}} d x

2 ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ - ln ∣ x + 2 ∣ - \frac{1}{x + 2} + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x ^{2} + 8 x + 9}{( x - 1 ) ( x + 2 ) ^{2}} d x

Take the partial fraction of

\frac{x ^{2} + 8 x + 9}{( x - 1 ) ( x + 2 ) ^{2}} : \frac{2}{x - 1} - \frac{1}{x + 2} + \frac{1}{( x + 2 ) ^{2}}

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

\int \frac{2}{x - 1} d x = 2 ln ∣ x - 1 ∣

\int \frac{1}{x + 2} d x = ln ∣ x + 2 ∣

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

= 2 ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ - ln ∣ x + 2 ∣ - \frac{1}{x + 2}

Add a constant to the solution

= 2 ln ∣ x - 1 ∣ - ln ∣ x + 2 ∣ - \frac{1}{x + 2} + C
