Simplify Integrand: Simplify the integrand by polynomial long division.We divide x2+4x+5 by x+3 to get a simpler expression to integrate.(x2+4x+5)÷(x+3)=x−1+(x+38)
Write Integral Expression: Write the integral in terms of the simplified expression.The integral becomes:∫03(x−1+x+38)dx
Break Into Simpler Parts: Break the integral into simpler parts. ∫(x−1)dx+∫(x+38)dx from 0 to 3
Integrate Each Part: Integrate each part separately.The integral of x is (1/2)x2, the integral of −1 is −x, and the integral of 8/(x+3) is 8ln∣x+3∣.So, the antiderivative is (1/2)x2−x+8ln∣x+3∣+C.
Evaluate Antiderivative: Evaluate the antiderivative from 0 to 3.Plug in the upper limit:(1/2)(3)2−(3)+8ln∣3+3∣−[(1/2)(0)2−(0)+8ln∣0+3∣]=(1/2)(9)−3+8ln(6)−[0−0+8ln(3)]=4.5−3+8ln(6)−8ln(3)
Simplify Result: Simplify the result using properties of logarithms.8ln(6)−8ln(3) can be simplified using the property ln(a)−ln(b)=ln(ba).So, 8ln(6)−8ln(3)=8ln(36)=8ln(2).The final result is:4.5−3+8ln(2)=1.5+8ln(2)
