We notice that the denominator is the perfect square:
x^2 + 6x + 9 = (x+3)^2
We'll re-write the
integral:
Int f(x)dx = Int
dx/(x+3)^2
We'll replace x+3 by
t.
x+3 = t
We'll differentiate
both sides:
(x+3)'dx = dt
So,
dx = dt
We'll re-write the integral in
t:
Int dx/(x+3)^2 = Int
dt/t^2
Int dt/t^2 = Int
[t^(-2)]*dt
Int [t^(-2)]*dt = t^(-2+1)/(-2+1) + C =
t^(-1)/-1 + C = -1/t + C
But t =
x+3
The requested antiderivative of dy/dx is
y = Int dx/(x+3)^2 = -1/(x+3) + C.
