integral of (x^4)/(x^5+3)

\int \frac{x ^{4}}{x ^{5} + 3} d x

\frac{1}{5} ln x^{5} + 3 + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x ^{4}}{x ^{5} + 3} d x

Apply u-substitution

= \int \frac{1}{5 u} d u

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= \frac{1}{5} \cdot \int \frac{1}{u} d u

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln (∣ u ∣)

= \frac{1}{5} ln ∣ u ∣

Substitute back

u = x^{5} + 3

= \frac{1}{5} ln x^{5} + 3

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{5} ln x^{5} + 3 + C
