Integral of x"2+4/x"2+4x+3

I'm guessing you mean

\displaystyle \int\frac{x^2+4}{x^2+4x+3}\,\mathrm dx

First, compute the quotient:

\displaystyle \frac{x^2+4}{x^2+4x+3} = 1 + \frac{4x-1}{x^2+4x+3}

Split up the remainder term into partial fractions. Notice that

<em>x</em> ² + 4<em>x</em> + 3 = (<em>x</em> + 3) (<em>x</em> + 1)

Then

\displaystyle \frac{4x-1}{x^2+4x+3} = \frac a{x+3} + \frac b{x+1} \\\\ \implies 4x - 1 = a(x+1) + b(x+3) = (a+b)x + a+3b \\\\ \implies a+b=4 \text{ and }a+3b = -1 \\\\ \implies a=\frac{13}2\text{ and }b=-\frac52

So the integral becomes

\displaystyle \int \left(1 + \frac{13}{2(x+3)} - \frac{5}{2(x+1)}\right) \,\mathrm dx = \boxed{x + \frac{13}2\ln|x+3| - \frac52 \ln|x+1| + C}

We can simplify the result somewhat:

\displaystyle x + \frac{13}2\ln|x+3| - \frac52 \ln|x+1| + C \\\\ = x + \frac12 \left(13\ln|x+3| - 5\ln|x+1|\right) + C \\\\ = x + \frac12 \left(\ln\left|(x+3)^{13}\right| - \ln\left|(x+1)^5\right|\right) + C \\\\ = x + \frac12 \ln\left|\frac{(x+3)^{13}}{(x+1)^5}\right| + C \\\\ = \boxed{x + \ln\sqrt{\left|\frac{(x+3)^{13}}{(x+1)^5}\right|} + C}

What is number 61 and a step by step explaination please?

1/3 ln(<em>x</em>) + ln(2) - ln(3) = 3

Recall that m\log_b(n)=\log_b(n^m), so

ln(<em>x</em> ¹ʹ³) + ln(2) - ln(3) = 3

Condense the left side by using sum and difference properties of logarithms:

\log_b(m)+\log_b(n)=\log_b(mn)

\log_b(m)-\log_b(n)=\log_b\left(\dfrac mn\right)

Then

ln(2/3 <em>x</em> ¹ʹ³) = 3

Take the exponential of both sides; that is, write both sides as powers of the constant <em>e</em>. (I'm using exp(<em>x</em>) = <em>e</em> ˣ so I can write it all in one line.)

exp(ln(2/3 <em>x</em> ¹ʹ³)) = exp(3)

Now exp(ln(<em>x</em>)) = <em>x </em>for all <em>x</em>, so this simplifies to

2/3 <em>x</em> ¹ʹ³ = exp(3)

Now solve for <em>x</em>. Multiply both sides by 3/2 :

3/2 × 2/3 <em>x</em> ¹ʹ³ = 3/2 exp(3)

<em>x</em> ¹ʹ³ = 3/2 exp(3)

Raise both sides to the power of 3:

(<em>x</em> ¹ʹ³)³ = (3/2 exp(3))³

<em>x</em> = 3³/2³ exp(3×3)

<em>x</em> = 27/8 exp(9)

which is the same as

<em>x</em> = 27/8 <em>e</em> ⁹

. Samantha is three times as old as Jason. The sum<br> of their ages is 56 years. How old is each?
8_murik_8 [283]

Step-by-step explanation:

let age of samantha be 3x and age of jason be x.(since samantha is three times as old as jason)

Now,

3x+x=56 (sum of their ages is 56)

or 4x=56

or x=56/4

or x=14

therefore age of samantha=3x=3×14=42

age of jason = x = 14
