Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define
Identify
[tex]\displaystyle \int {\frac{x^4 - 5x^3 + 6x^2 - 18}{x^3 + 3x^2}} \, dx[/tex]
Step 2: Partial Fraction Decomposition
- [Integrand] Factor: [tex]\displaystyle \int {\frac{x^4 - 5x^3 + 6x^2 - 18}{x^2(x + 3)}} \, dx[/tex]
- [Integrand] Simplify [Long Division, See Attachment]: [tex]\displaystyle \frac{x^4 - 5x^3 + 6x^2 - 18}{x^2(x + 3)} = x - 8 + \frac{30x^2 - 18}{x^2(x + 3)}[/tex]
- Split: [tex]\displaystyle \frac{30x^2 - 18}{x^2(x + 3)} = \frac{A}{x} + \frac{B}{x^2} + \frac{C}{x + 3}[/tex]
- Simplify [Common Denominator]: [tex]\displaystyle 30x^2 - 18 = Ax(x + 3) + B(x + 3) + Cx^2[/tex]
- [Decomp] Substitute in x = -3: [tex]\displaystyle 30(-3)^2 - 18 = A(-3)(-3 + 3) + B(-3 + 3) + C(-3)^2[/tex]
- Simplify: [tex]\displaystyle 252 = 9C[/tex]
- Solve: [tex]\displaystyle C = 28[/tex]
- [Decomp] Substitute in x = 0: [tex]\displaystyle 30(0)^2 - 18 = A(0)(0 + 3) + B(0 + 3) + C(0)^2[/tex]
- Simplify: [tex]\displaystyle -18 = 3B[/tex]
- Solve: [tex]\displaystyle B = -6[/tex]
- [Decomp] Coefficient Method: [tex]\displaystyle 3Ax + Bx = 0x[/tex]
- [Coefficient Method] Substitute in B: [tex]\displaystyle 3A - 6 = 0[/tex]
- [Coefficient Method] Solve: [tex]\displaystyle A = 2[/tex]
- [Split Integrand] Substitute in variables: [tex]\displaystyle \frac{x^4 - 5x^3 + 6x^2 - 18}{x^2(x + 3)} = x - 8 + \frac{2}{x} - \frac{6}{x^2} + \frac{28}{x + 3}[/tex]
Step 3: Integrate Pt. 1
- [Integral] Substitute in integrand [Split Integrand]: [tex]\displaystyle \int {\bigg( x - 8 + \frac{2}{x} - \frac{6}{x^2} + \frac{28}{x + 3} \bigg)} \, dx[/tex]
- [Integral] Rewrite [Integration Property - Addition/Subtraction]: [tex]\displaystyle \int {x} \, dx - \int {8} \, dx + \int {\frac{2}{x}} \, dx - \int {\frac{6}{x^2}} \, dx + \int {\frac{28}{x + 3}} \, dx[/tex]
- [Integrals] Rewrite [Integration Property - Multiplied Constant]: [tex]\displaystyle \int {x} \, dx - 8\int {} \, dx + 2\int {\frac{1}{x}} \, dx - 6\int {\frac{1}{x^2}} \, dx + 28\int {\frac{1}{x + 3}} \, dx[/tex]
- [4th Integrand] Rewrite [Exponential Rule - Rewrite]: [tex]\displaystyle \int {x} \, dx - 8\int {} \, dx + 2\int {\frac{1}{x}} \, dx - 6\int {x^{-2}} \, dx + 28\int {\frac{1}{x + 3}} \, dx[/tex]
- [1st/2nd/4th Integral] Reverse Power Rule: [tex]\displaystyle \frac{x^2}{2} - 8x + 2\int {\frac{1}{x}} \, dx - 6(\frac{-1}{x}) + 28\int {\frac{1}{x + 3}} \, dx[/tex]
Step 4: Integrate Pt. 2
Identify variables for u-substitution.
- Set u: [tex]\displaystyle u = x + 3[/tex]
- [u] Differentiate [Basic Power Rule]: [tex]\displaystyle du = dx[/tex]
Step 5: Integrate Pt. 3
- [2nd Integral] U-Substitution: [tex]\displaystyle \frac{x^2}{2} - 8x + 2\int {\frac{1}{x}} \, dx - 6(\frac{-1}{x}) + 28\int {\frac{1}{u}} \, du[/tex]
- [Integrals] Logarithmic Integration: [tex]\displaystyle \frac{x^2}{2} - 8x + 2ln|x| - 6(\frac{-1}{x}) + 28ln|u| + C[/tex]
- Back-Substitute: [tex]\displaystyle \frac{x^2}{2} - 8x + 2ln|x| - 6(\frac{-1}{x}) + 28ln|x + 3| + C[/tex]
- Simplify: [tex]\displaystyle 28ln|x + 3| + 2ln|x| + \frac{x^2}{2} + \frac{6}{x} - 8x + C[/tex]
