Question
Evaluate the following integrals:

$\int\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{x}^2+6\text{x}+12}\text{ dx}$

Answer

Let $\text{I}=\int\frac{\text{x}^2\text{ dx}}{\text{x}^2+6\text{x}+12}$

Now,

Therefore,

$\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{x}^2+6\text{x}+12}=1-\frac{(6\text{x}+12)}{\text{x}^2+6\text{x}+12}\ ....(1)$

Let $6\text{x}+12=\text{A}\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\big(\text{x}^2+6\text{x}+12\big)+\text{B}$

$\Rightarrow6\text{x}+12=\text{A}(2\text{x}+6)+\text{B}$

$\Rightarrow6\text{x}+12=(2\text{A})\text{x}+6\text{A}+\text{B}$

Equating coefficients of like terms

$2\text{A}=6$

$\text{A}=3$

$6\text{A}+\text{B}=12$

$18+\text{B}=12$

$\text{B}=-6$

$\therefore\ \frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{x}^2+6\text{x}+12}=1-\frac{3(2\text{x}+6)}{\text{x}^2+6\text{x}+12}$

$\text{I}=\int\frac{\text{x}^2\text{ dx}}{\text{x}^2+6\text{x}+12}$

$=\int\text{dx}-3\int\frac{(2\text{x}+6)\text{ dx}}{\text{x}^2+6\text{x}+12}+6\int\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{x}^2+6\text{x}+12}$

$=\int\text{dx}-3\int\frac{(2\text{x}+6)\text{ dx}}{\text{x}^2+6\text{x}+12}+6\int\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{x}^2+6\text{x}+9+3}$

$=\int\text{dx}-3\int\frac{(2\text{x}+6)\text{ dx}}{\text{x}^2+6\text{x}+12}+6\int\frac{\text{dx}}{(\text{x}+3)^2+\big(\sqrt3\big)^2}$

$=\text{x}-3\log\big|\text{x}^2+6\text{x}+12\big|+\frac{6}{\sqrt3}\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{x}+3}{\sqrt3}\Big)+\text{C}$

$=\text{x}-3\log\big|\text{x}^2+6\text{x}+12\big|+2\sqrt3\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{x}+3}{\sqrt3}\Big)+\text{C}$

A manufacturer of patent medicines is preparing a production plan on medicines, A and B. There are sufficient raw materials available to make 20000 bottles of A and 40000 bottles of B, but there are only 45000 bottles into which either of the medicines can be put. Further, it takes 3 hours to prepare enough material to fill 1000 bottles of A, it takes 1 hour to prepare enough material to fill 1000 bottles of B and there are 66 hours available for this operation. The profit is Rs. 8 per bottle for A and Rs. 7 per bottle for B. How should the manufacturer schedule his production in order to maximize his profit?
