Step 1: Recognize that the denominator of the integrand, 4x² + 12x + 10, is a quadratic expression. To simplify the integral, complete the square for the quadratic expression in the denominator.
Step 2: Rewrite 4x² + 12x + 10 by factoring out 4 from the first two terms: 4(x² + 3x) + 10. Then complete the square inside the parentheses: x² + 3x = (x + 3/2)² - (3/2)². Substitute this back into the expression.
Step 3: After completing the square, the denominator becomes 4((x + 3/2)² - 9/4) + 10. Simplify this expression to get 4(x + 3/2)² + 1.
Step 4: Recognize that the integral now has the form ∫ dx / [a² + (x - h)²], which is a standard form for integration using the arctangent function. Use the formula ∫ dx / (a² + x²) = (1/a) * arctan(x/a) + C, adjusting for the shift in x.
Step 5: Apply the limits of integration (-3/2 to -1) to the result obtained from the arctangent formula. Evaluate the definite integral by substituting the limits into the antiderivative.

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Integration Techniques

Integration techniques are methods used to find the integral of a function. Common techniques include substitution, integration by parts, and partial fraction decomposition. Understanding these methods is essential for evaluating more complex integrals, especially those that cannot be solved using basic antiderivatives.

Integration by Parts for Definite Integrals

Definite Integrals

A definite integral calculates the area under a curve between two specified limits. It is represented as ∫ from a to b f(x) dx, where 'a' and 'b' are the bounds of integration. The result of a definite integral is a numerical value that represents this area, which is crucial for applications in physics and engineering.

Quadratic Functions

Quadratic functions are polynomial functions of the form ax² + bx + c, where a, b, and c are constants. In the context of integration, recognizing the structure of a quadratic expression can help in simplifying the integral, often by completing the square or using substitution to facilitate easier integration.
