∫xdxx2+3x+2\displaystyle\int \dfrac{xdx}{x^2+3x+2} is equal to:

(where cc is an arbitrary constant)

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Factor the denominator as (x+1)(x+2)(x+1)(x+2) and use partial fractions:

x(x+1)(x+2)=−1x+1+2x+2\dfrac{x}{(x+1)(x+2)} = \dfrac{-1}{x+1} + \dfrac{2}{x+2}.

Integrating term by term gives −log⁡∣x+1∣+2log⁡∣x+2∣+c-\log|x+1| + 2\log|x+2| + c.
