  • $\frac{2}{a^{2}}\left(x -\frac{b}{a} log\left(ax+b\right)\right)+ C$
  • $\frac{2}{a^{2}}\left(x -\frac{b}{a} log\left(ax+b\right)\right) -\frac{x^{2}}{a\left(ax+b\right)}+ C$
  • $\frac{2}{a^{2}}\left(x +\frac{b}{a} log\left(ax+b\right)\right) +\frac{x^{2}}{a\left(ax+b\right)}+ C$
  • $\frac{2}{a^{2}}\left(x +\frac{b}{a} log\left(ax+b\right)\right) -\frac{x^{2}}{a\left(ax+b\right)}+ C$

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

$I= \int\frac{x^{2}}{\left(ax+b\right)^{2}} dx$ Put $ax +b =t \Rightarrow dx =\frac{1}{a} dt $ $\therefore I =\frac{1}{a^{3}}\int\frac{\left(t-b\right)^{2}}{t^{2}} dt =\frac{1}{a^{3}} \int\left(1+\frac{b^{2}}{t^{2}}-\frac{2b}{t}\right) dt$ $= \frac{1}{a^{3}} \left(t -\frac{b^{2}}{t}-2blogt\right) + C $ $ \frac{1}{a^{3}}\left(ax + b -\frac{b^{2}}{ax+b}-2b\, log\left(ax+b\right)\right) + C $ $= \frac{2}{a^{2}} \left(x-\frac{b}{a} log\left(ax+b\right)\right)-\frac{x^{2}}{a\left(ax+b\right)} + C$

Concepts Used:

Integral

The representation of the area of a region under a curve is called to be as integral. The actual value of an integral can be acquired (approximately) by drawing rectangles.

  • The definite integral of a function can be shown as the area of the region bounded by its graph of the given function between two points in the line.
  • The area of a region is found by splitting it into thin vertical rectangles and applying the lower and the upper limits, the area of the region is summarized.
  • An integral of a function over an interval on which the integral is described.

Also, F(x) is known to be a Newton-Leibnitz integral or antiderivative or primitive of a function f(x) on an interval I.

F'(x) = f(x)

For every value of x = I.

Types of Integrals:

Integral calculus helps to resolve two major types of problems:

  1. The problem of getting a function if its derivative is given.
  2. The problem of getting the area bounded by the graph of a function under given situations.
