10. 0 ( x  1)2 dx
Problem II:
3x  10
We will evaluate the integral:  x  2 x2  5x
3
dx

3x  10
1. Decompose into partial fractions:
x  2 x2  5x
3

2. Show by completing the square that: x 2  2 x  5  ( x  1) 2  4


3x  10
3. Use your answer to the previous question 2, to evaluate:  x  2 x2  5x
