∫ [(2x³ + x² − 21x + 24) / (x² + 2x − 8)] dx

Guida verificata passo dopo passo
1
First, observe the integral \( \int \frac{2x^3 + x^2 - 21x + 24}{x^2 + 2x - 8} \, dx \). Since the degree of the numerator (3) is higher than the degree of the denominator (2), start by performing polynomial long division to simplify the integrand.
Divide \( 2x^3 + x^2 - 21x + 24 \) by \( x^2 + 2x - 8 \) to express the integrand as a polynomial plus a proper rational function (where the numerator degree is less than the denominator degree).
After the division, rewrite the integral as \( \int (\text{quotient} + \frac{\text{remainder}}{x^2 + 2x - 8}) \, dx \). Then, split the integral into two parts: one involving the polynomial quotient and the other involving the proper rational function.
Next, factor the denominator \( x^2 + 2x - 8 \) into \( (x + 4)(x - 2) \) to prepare for partial fraction decomposition of the proper rational function.
Set up the partial fraction decomposition for the proper rational function as \( \frac{A}{x + 4} + \frac{B}{x - 2} \), solve for constants \( A \) and \( B \), then integrate each term separately.

Concetti chiave

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

Polynomial Long Division

When the degree of the numerator is equal to or greater than the denominator in a rational function, polynomial long division is used to simplify the integrand. This process rewrites the integrand as a polynomial plus a proper fraction, making the integral easier to evaluate.

Substitution Method

Substitution involves changing variables to simplify an integral, often by letting a part of the integrand equal a new variable. This technique is useful when the integral contains a composite function or when the derivative of a function appears elsewhere in the integrand.

Partial Fraction Decomposition

Partial fraction decomposition breaks a rational function into simpler fractions that are easier to integrate. After ensuring the fraction is proper, the denominator is factored, and the integrand is expressed as a sum of fractions with unknown coefficients to be determined.
