integral from 3 to 8 of x/(x^2+6x+13)

\int_{3}^{8} \frac{x}{x ^{2} + 6 x + 13} d x

\frac{ln ( \frac{25}{8} ) - 3 ( arctan ( \frac{11}{2} ) - arctan ( 3 ) )}{2}

Decimal

0.35687 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{3}^{8} \frac{x}{x ^{2} + 6 x + 13} d x

Complete the square

x^{2} + 6 x + 13 : (x + 3)^{2} + 4

= \int_{3}^{8} \frac{x}{( x + 3 ) ^{2} + 4} d x

Apply u-substitution

= \int_{6}^{11} \frac{u - 3}{u ^{2} + 4} d u

Expand

\frac{u - 3}{u ^{2} + 4} : \frac{u}{u ^{2} + 4} - \frac{3}{u ^{2} + 4}

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

= \int_{6}^{11} \frac{u}{u ^{2} + 4} d u - \int_{6}^{11} \frac{3}{u ^{2} + 4} d u

\int_{6}^{11} \frac{u}{u ^{2} + 4} d u = \frac{1}{2} ln (\frac{25}{8})

\int_{6}^{11} \frac{3}{u ^{2} + 4} d u = \frac{3}{2} (arctan (\frac{11}{2}) - arctan (3))

= \frac{1}{2} ln (\frac{25}{8}) - \frac{3}{2} (arctan (\frac{11}{2}) - arctan (3))

Simplify

\frac{1}{2} ln (\frac{25}{8}) - \frac{3}{2} (arctan (\frac{11}{2}) - arctan (3)) : \frac{ln ( \frac{25}{8} ) - 3 ( arctan ( \frac{11}{2} ) - arctan ( 3 ) )}{2}

= \frac{ln ( \frac{25}{8} ) - 3 ( arctan ( \frac{11}{2} ) - arctan ( 3 ) )}{2}
