Question
Evaluate the following integrals:
$\int\frac{\text{x}}{(\text{x}-3)\sqrt{\text{x}+1}}\text{ dx}$

Answer

Let $\text{I}=\int\frac{\text{x}}{(\text{x}-3)\sqrt{\text{x}+1}}\text{ dx}$
$=\int\frac{(\text{x}-3)+3}{(\text{x}-3)\sqrt{\text{x}+1}}\text{ dx}$
$\text{I}=\int\frac{\text{dx}}{\sqrt{\text{x}+1}}+3\int\frac{\text{dx}}{(\text{x}-3)\sqrt{\text{x}+1}}\ ...(\text{i})$
Now, $\int\frac{\text{dx}}{\sqrt{\text{x}+1}}=2\sqrt{\text{x}+1}+\text{C}_1$
and, $\int\frac{\text{dx}}{\sqrt{\text{x}+2}}=2\sqrt{\text{x}+2}+\text{C}_2$
$\int\frac{\text{dx}}{(\text{x}-3)\sqrt{\text{x}+1}}$
Let $\text{x}+1=\text{t}^2$
$\text{dx}=2\text{t dt}$
$\int\frac{\text{dx}}{(\text{x})-3\sqrt{\text{x}+1}}=2\int\frac{\text{t dt}}{(\text{t}^2-4)\text{t}}$
$=2\Big|\frac{\text{dt}}{\text{t}^2-4}\Big|$
$=\frac{2}{2\times2}\log\Big|\frac{\text{t}-2}{\text{t}+2}\Big|+\text{C}_2$
$\therefore\ \int\frac{\text{dx}}{(\text{x}-3)\sqrt{\text{x}+1}}=\frac{1}{2}\log\bigg|\frac{\sqrt{\text{x}+1}-2}{\sqrt{\text{x}}+1+2}\bigg|+\text{C}_2$
Thus, from (i)
$\text{I}=2\sqrt{\text{x}+1}+\frac{3}{2}\log\bigg|\frac{\sqrt{\text{x}+1}-2}{\sqrt{\text{x}+1}+2}\bigg|+\text{C}$ [When C = C1 + C2]

A manufacturer makes two products A and B. Product A sells at Rs. 200 each and takes 1/2 hour to make. Product B sells at Rs. 300 each and takes 1 hour to make. There is a permanent order for 14 of product A and 16 of product B. A working week consists of 40 hours of production and weekly turnover must not be less than Rs 10000. If the profit on each of product A is Rs. 20 and on product B is Rs. 30, then how many of each should be produced so that the profit is maximum. Also, find the maximum profit.
A manufacturer has three machines installed in his factory. machines I and II are capable of being operated for at most 12 hours whereas Machine III must operate at least for 5 hours a day. He produces only two items, each requiring the use of three machines. The number of hours required for producing one unit each of the items on the three machines is given in the following table:
Item Number of hours required by the machine
  I II III
A 1 2 1
B 2 1 $\frac{5}{4}$
He makes a profit of Rs. 6.00 on item A and Rs. 4.00 on item B. Assuming that he can sell all that he produces, how many of each item should he produces so as to maximize his profit? Determine his maximum profit. Formulate this LPP mathematically and then solve it.
A manufacturer makes two types A and B of tea-cups. Three machines are needed for the manufacture and the time in minutes required for each cup on the machines is given below:
