Please intergrate: (x+3)/(x^2+4x) is it even possible to integrate this? The question in the book was (x+2)/(x^2+4x) and it can nicely be integrated to 0.5ln(x^2+4x), but by changing the 2 to a 3 f'(x) don't go into each other. if you know what i mean.

The problem shows a picture of a surface of a half sphere. It is labeled surface 1 being the disk of the top of the half sphere. Surface 2 is the remaining surface of the half sphere. R is the radius. The magnetic field is uniform and makes an angle theta with the vertical (or with the...

One last question to Integrate x^2/(1+4•x^2). I would assume you would do long division but 4x^2 is bigger than x^2. so would you either pull out a 1/4 and it would be 1/4 ∫ x^2/(1/4+•x^2) dx or would the first term when doing long division be 1/4? or am I just totally wrong and you...
