integral of (3-x)/(1+x^2)

\int \frac{3 - x}{1 + x ^{2}} d x

3 arctan (x) - \frac{1}{2} ln 1 + x^{2} + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{3 - x}{1 + x ^{2}} d x

Expand

\frac{3 - x}{1 + x ^{2}} : \frac{3}{1 + x ^{2}} - \frac{x}{1 + x ^{2}}

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

= \int \frac{3}{1 + x ^{2}} d x - \int \frac{x}{1 + x ^{2}} d x

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

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

= 3 arctan (x) - \frac{1}{2} ln 1 + x^{2}

Add a constant to the solution

= 3 arctan (x) - \frac{1}{2} ln 1 + x^{2} + C
