Given f(x)= 6x/ (3x^2 + 4)
We need to find the integral of f(x).
Let us assume that y= 3x^2 + 4
==> dy = 6x dx
Let us substitute:
intg f(x) = intg ( 6x/ (3x^2 + 4) dx
= intg ( dy / y)
= ln y + C
==> Now we will substitute with y= 3x^2 + 4
==> intg f(x) = ln ( 3x^2 + 4) + C
It is given that f(x) = 6x / (3x^3 + 4)
Let t = 3x^2 + 4
dt / dx = 6x
=> dt = 6x dx
Int [6x / (3x^3 + 4) dx]
=> Int [dt / t]
=> ln t + C
replace t with 3x^2 + 4
=> ln (3x^2 + 4) + C
Therefore the integral of f(x) = 6x / (3x^2 + 4) is ln (3x^2 + 4) + C.
