Math Problem Statement

\int (x^(3)e^(x^(2)))/((x^(2)+1)^(2))

Solution

To solve the integral

I=x3ex2(x2+1)2dx,I = \int \frac{x^3 e^{x^2}}{(x^2 + 1)^2} \, dx,

let's try substitution to simplify the expression.

Step 1: Substitution

Let u=x2+1u = x^2 + 1, which implies that:

du=2xdxordu2=xdx.du = 2x \, dx \quad \text{or} \quad \frac{du}{2} = x \, dx.

Now, observe that x2=u1x^2 = u - 1, so:

x3=xx2=x(u1).x^3 = x \cdot x^2 = x(u - 1).

Thus, the integral becomes:

I=x(u1)eu1u2du2.I = \int \frac{x(u - 1) e^{u - 1}}{u^2} \cdot \frac{du}{2}.

Step 2: Simplifying the Integral

We can now factor constants and simplify:

I=12x(u1)eu1u2du.I = \frac{1}{2} \int \frac{x(u - 1) e^{u - 1}}{u^2} \, du.

Let’s now evaluate or proceed with any further simplification.
