Question
Find $\int \frac{2x}{(x^{2} + 1)(x^{2} + 2)^{2}} \text{d}x.$

Answer

$\int \frac{\text{2x}}{(\text{x}^{2} + 1)\text{(x}^{2} + 2)^{2}} = \int \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{(y + 1) (y + 2)}^{2}}$ [by substituting $x^2 = y$]
$ = \int \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{y + 1}} - \int \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{y + 2}} - \int\frac{\text{dy}}{(\text{y + 2)}^{2}}$ (using partial fraction)
$= \log \text{(y + 1)} - \log (\text{y + 2)} + \frac{1}{\text{y + 2}} + \text{C}$
$= \log (\text{x}^{2} + 1) - \log \text{(x}^{2} + 2) + \frac{1}{\text{x}^{2} + 2} + \text{C}$

A laboratory blood test is 99% effective in detecting a certain disease when it is in fact, present. However, the test also yields a false positive result for 0.5% of the healthy person tested (i. e if a healthy person is tested, then, with probability 0.005, the test will imply he has the disease). If 0.1 percent of the population actually has the disease, what is the probability that a person has the disease given that his test result is positive?

A small firm manufactures gold rings and chains. The total number of rings and chains manufactured per day is at most 24. It takes 1 hour to make a ring and 30 minutes to make a chain. The maximum number of hours available per day is 16. If the profit on a ring is Rs. 300 and that on a chain is Rs. 190, find the number of rings and chains that should be manufactured per day, so as to earn the maximum profit. Make it as an LPP and solve it graphically.
