How to Integrate x/(x+2)?

How do i integrate this ?

∫ (x/(x+2)) .dx

Any idea ?

Try using a substitution. The immediate problem is dividing by x + 2, so try u = x + 2.
An alternative solution is to use polynomial division to simplify the fraction. It is a good idea to be familiar with both techniques for more advanced problems.
