Question
Evaluate the following integrals:
$\int\frac{3\text{x}+5}{\text{x}^3-\text{x}^2-\text{x}+1}\ \text{dx}$

Answer

To evaluate the integrals follow the steps:
$\int\frac{3\text{x}+5}{\text{x}^3-\text{x}^2-\text{x}+1}\ \text{dx}$
Let $\frac{3\text{x}-5}{(\text{x}-1)^2(\text{x}+1)}=\frac{\text{A}}{\text{x}-1}+\frac{\text{B}}{(\text{x}-1)^2}+\frac{\text{C}}{\text{x}+1}$
$3\text{x}+5=\text{A}(\text{x}-1)(\text{x}+1)+\text{B}(\text{x}+1)+\text{C}(\text{x}-1)^2$
For x = 1 B = 4
$\text{For x} = -1\ \text{C}=\frac{1}{2}$ 
$\text{For x} = 0\ \text{A}=-\frac{1}{2}$
Therefore
$\int\frac{3\text{x}+5}{(\text{x}-1)^2(\text{x}+1)}\ \text{dx}=-\frac{1}{2}\int\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{x}-1}+\frac{1}{2}\int\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{x}+1}$
$=-\frac{1}{2}\ln|(\text{x}-1)|-\frac{4}{(\text{x}-1)}+\frac{1}{2}\ln|(\text{x}+1)|+\text{C}$
$=\frac{1}{2}\ln\big|\frac{\text{x}+1}{\text{x}-1}\big|-\frac{4}{(\text{x}-1)}+\text{C}$

A dealer in rural area wishes to purchase a number of sewing machines. He has only ₹ 5,760 to invest and has space for at most 20 items for storage. An electronic sewing machine costs him  360 and a manually operated sewing machine 240. He can sell the sewing machine at a profit of ₹ 22 and a manually operated sewing machine at a profit of ₹ 18. Assuming that he can sell all the items that he can buy, how should he invest his money in order to maximize his profit? Make it as an LPP and solve it graphically.
