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

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

- ln x^{2} + 1 + C

Solution steps

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

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

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

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{1}{2 u} d u

= - 2 \cdot \int \frac{1}{2 u} d u

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= - 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int \frac{1}{u} d u

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln (∣ u ∣)

= - 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} ln ∣ u ∣

Substitute back

u = x^{2} + 1

= - 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} ln x^{2} + 1

Simplify

- 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} ln x^{2} + 1 : - ln x^{2} + 1

= - ln x^{2} + 1

Add a constant to the solution

= - ln x^{2} + 1 + C

\int - x^{3} + 5 x^{2} - 4 x d x

\frac{d}{d x} ((\frac{x}{3} + 1)^{\frac{3}{2}})

\int cos (x) (6 + 4 sin^{2} (x)) d x

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (9 - 3 x^{2} - y^{2})
