                                                 i
                                           2
                                                       i
                         6. Integrate: = # _ sec i  -  1i d =  tan - i  +  C .
                         7. Switch back to x (look at Step 4).
                                 2
                                                2
                                                  1
                            =  4 x - -  arctan 4 x - +  C
                                   1
                            or
                                 2
                            =  4 x - -  arcsec x2 +  C
                                   1
                    s #       5 dx   =  5  ln  2 x -  1  +  C
                             2
                           2 x +  7 x -  4  9  x +  4
                         1. Factor the denominator: = #  5 dx   .
                                                    2 ^  x -  1 ^h  x +  4h
                                                                              5         A      B
                         2. Break up the fraction into a sum of partial fractions:   =      +     .
                                                                         2 ^  x -  1 ^h  x +  4h  2 x -  1  x +  4
                                                                                          x
                         3. Multiply both sides by the least common denominator: 5 =  A x + h  B 2 -  1h.
                                                                                   4 +
                                                                                        ^
                                                                               ^
                         4. Plug the roots of the factors into x one at a time.
                                                             1
                                 4
                            x = - gives you              x =    gives you
                                                             2
                                                             9
                             5 = - 9 B                   5 =  A
                                                             2
                                 5
                            B = -                        A =  10
                                 9                           9
                         5. Split up your integral and integrate.
                             #    5 dx  =  10  #  dx  +  - 5  #  dx  =  5  ln x -  1 -  5  ln x +  4 +  C =  5  ln  2 x -  1  +  C
                                                                     2
                                2
                              2 x +  7 x -  4  9  2 x -  1  9  x +  4  9    9             9    x +  4
                    t #          2 x -  3    =  - 7  ln x -  1 +  11  ln x +  4 -  13  ln x +  5 +  C .
                                                     3
                           3 ^  x -  1 ^h  x +  4 ^h  x +  5h  208  13   16
                         1. The denominator is already factored, so go ahead and write your sum of partial fractions.
                                   2 x -  3    =   A  +   B  +  C
                             3 ^  x -  1 ^h  x +  4 ^h  x +  5h  3 x -  1  x +  4  x +  5
                         2. Multiply both sides by the LCD.
                            2 x - =  A x +  4 ^h  x + h  B 3 -  1 ^h  x + h  C 3 -  1 ^h  x +  4h
                                                      x
                                                                     x
                                3
                                                              5 +
                                              5 +
                                                                    ^
                                                    ^
                                     ^
                         3. Plug the roots of the factors into x one at a time.

                            x =  gives you : -  =     ; A  A = -
                                3            3    9           208
                                                            11
                            x = - 4  " " " : - 11 = - 13  ; B  B =
                                                            13
                                                             13
                            x = - 5  " " " : - 13 =  16 C  C = -
                                                             16
                         4. Split up and integrate.
                             #       2 x -  3    dx =  - 21 #  dx  +  11  #  dx  +  - 13  #  dx
                               3 ^  x -  1 ^h  x +  4 ^h  x +  5h  208  3 x -  1  13  x +  4  16  x +  5
                                                      - 7          11         13
                                                           3
                                                   =     ln x -  1 +  ln x +  4 -  ln x +  5 +  C
