Math Problem Statement

solve with partial fraction differentiation.

Solve the integral: \( \int \frac{5}{x(x^2 + 6)^2} \, dx \) using partial fraction decomposition.

Solution

To solve the integral provided using partial fraction decomposition:

5x(x2+6)2dx\int \frac{5}{x(x^2 + 6)^2} \, dx

We start by decomposing the fraction into simpler parts. We express 5x(x2+6)2\frac{5}{x(x^2 + 6)^2} in terms of partial fractions as follows:

5x(x2+6)2=Ax+Bx+Cx2+6+Dx+E(x2+6)2\frac{5}{x(x^2 + 6)^2} = \frac{A}{x} + \frac{Bx + C}{x^2 + 6} + \frac{Dx + E}{(x^2 + 6)^2}

To find AA, BB, CC, DD, and EE, we multiply both sides by the denominator x(x2+6)2x(x^2 + 6)^2, leading to:

5=A(x2+6)2+(Bx+C)x(x2+6)+(Dx+E)x5 = A(x^2 + 6)^2 + (Bx + C)x(x^2 + 6) + (Dx + E)x

Now, we can equate the coefficients from each side of the equation for different powers of xx to solve for the constants. This process involves setting values for xx and equating like terms, or comparing coefficients directly if the expression is expanded fully.

Let's start the process of finding these constants.
