Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Integrate term - by - term
We know that (\int\left(-\frac{1}{x}-\frac{3}{x^{2}}+\frac{1}{x - 3}\right)dx=-\int\frac{1}{x}dx-3\int x^{-2}dx+\int\frac{1}{x - 3}dx).
Step2: Apply integral formulas
- For (\int\frac{1}{x}dx=\ln|x|+C_1).
- For (\int x^{n}dx=\frac{x^{n + 1}}{n+1}+C(n\neq - 1)), when (n=-2), (\int x^{-2}dx=\frac{x^{-2 + 1}}{-2+1}=-\frac{1}{x}+C_2).
- For (\int\frac{1}{u}du=\ln|u|+C) (using substitution (u=x - 3), (du=dx)), (\int\frac{1}{x - 3}dx=\ln|x - 3|+C_3).
Step3: Combine the results
[ \begin{align*} -\int\frac{1}{x}dx-3\int x^{-2}dx+\int\frac{1}{x - 3}dx&=-\ln|x|-3\left(-\frac{1}{x}\right)+\ln|x - 3|+C\ &=-\ln|x|+\frac{3}{x}+\ln|x - 3|+C \end{align*} ]
Answer:
(-\ln|x|+\frac{3}{x}+\ln|x - 3|+C)
