Rewrite the expression $\frac{x}{x^2-1}$ inside the integral in factored form
Learn how to solve problems step by step online. Integrate the function x/(x^2-1) from 3 to 2. Rewrite the expression \frac{x}{x^2-1} inside the integral in factored form. Since the upper limit of the integral is less than the lower one, we can rewrite the limits by applying the inverse property of integration limits: If we invert the limits of an integral, it changes sign: \int_a^bf(x)dx=-\int_b^af(x)dx. Rewrite the fraction \frac{x}{\left(x+1\right)\left(x-1\right)} in 2 simpler fractions using partial fraction decomposition. Expand the integral \int\left(\frac{1}{2\left(x+1\right)}+\frac{1}{2\left(x-1\right)}\right)dx into 2 integrals using the sum rule for integrals, to then solve each integral separately.
