The integral of x^2-x x^3-x^2+x-1 w.r.t. x is
Options
- A1 2 (x^2+1+c )
- B1 2 |x^2-1 |+c
- C(x^2+1+c )
- D|x^2-1 |+c
Correct answer
A. 1 2 (x^2+1+c )
Step-by-step solution
Let I= x^2-x x^3-x^2+x-1 d x = x(x-1) x^2(x-1)+(x-1) d x= x d x x^2+1 .= 1 2 2 x d x (x^2+1 . ) Let x^2+1=t 2 x d x=d t aligned & I= 1 2 d t t = 1 2 t+c & = 1 2 (x^2+1 )+c aligned where ' c ' is the constant of integration.
