integral of (3x-2)/(x^2+2x+4)

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

\frac{3}{2} ln x^{2} + 2 x + 4 - \frac{5}{3} arctan (\frac{1}{3} (x + 1)) + C

Solution steps

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

Complete the square

x^{2} + 2 x + 4 : (x + 1)^{2} + 3

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

Apply u-substitution

= \int \frac{3 u - 5}{u ^{2} + 3} d u

Expand

\frac{3 u - 5}{u ^{2} + 3} : \frac{3 u}{u ^{2} + 3} - \frac{5}{u ^{2} + 3}

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 u}{u ^{2} + 3} d u - \int \frac{5}{u ^{2} + 3} d u

\int \frac{3 u}{u ^{2} + 3} d u = \frac{3}{2} ln u^{2} + 3

\int \frac{5}{u ^{2} + 3} d u = \frac{5}{3} arctan (\frac{u}{3})

= \frac{3}{2} ln u^{2} + 3 - \frac{5}{3} arctan (\frac{u}{3})

Substitute back

u = x + 1

= \frac{3}{2} ln (x + 1)^{2} + 3 - \frac{5}{3} arctan (\frac{x + 1}{3})

Simplify

\frac{3}{2} ln (x + 1)^{2} + 3 - \frac{5}{3} arctan (\frac{x + 1}{3}) : \frac{3}{2} ln x^{2} + 2 x + 4 - \frac{5}{3} arctan (\frac{1}{3} (x + 1))

= \frac{3}{2} ln x^{2} + 2 x + 4 - \frac{5}{3} arctan (\frac{1}{3} (x + 1))

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{3}{2} ln x^{2} + 2 x + 4 - \frac{5}{3} arctan (\frac{1}{3} (x + 1)) + C
