integral from 1 to 2 of-2/(x^2)

\int_{1}^{2} - \frac{2}{x ^{2}} d x

- 1

Solution steps

\int_{1}^{2} - \frac{2}{x ^{2}} d x

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= - 2 \cdot \int_{1}^{2} \frac{1}{x ^{2}} d x

Apply the Power Rule

: [- \frac{1}{x}]_{1}^{2}

= - 2 [- \frac{1}{x}]_{1}^{2}

Compute the boundaries:

\frac{1}{2}

= - 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2}

Simplify

= - 1

\int_{0}^{\frac{2 π}{3}} cos (2 t) d t

\int_{e}^{e^{2}} (\frac{ln ( x )}{x}) d x

\int_{0}^{1} \frac{1}{4 + 4 x ^{2}} d x

\int_{- 1}^{2} 2 x + 5 d x

\int_{- π}^{π} x cos (2 x) d x
