Evaluate the following integral ∫1/(x^3 (1+x)^4 ) dx
Put z=(x+1)/x then x=1/(1+z) dx=-dz⁄(z+1)^2 I=-∫(z+1)^5/z^4 dz
(z-1)^5=z^5-5z^4+10z^3-10z^2+5z-1I=-∫(z^5-5z^4+10z^3-10z^2+5z-1)/z^4 dz=z^2/2+5z+10 lnz-10/z-5/(2z^2 )-3/z^3 +c=((x+1)/x)^2/2-5((x+1)/x)+10 ln((x+1)/x)-10/(((x+1)/x) )-5/(2((x+1)/x)^2 )-3/((x+1)/x)^3 +c
