Step-by-step solution

4 steps
  1. Simplify the integrand.

    First, factor out yy from the numerator and denominator:

    y3+4y2y3+y=y2(y+4)y(y2+1)=y(y+4)y2+1=y2+4yy2+1\frac{y^3+4y^2}{y^3+y} = \frac{y^2(y+4)}{y(y^2+1)} = \frac{y(y+4)}{y^2+1} = \frac{y^2+4y}{y^2+1}

    Since the degree of the numerator is equal to the degree of the denominator, perform polynomial long division or rewrite the numerator:

    y2+4yy2+1=(y2+1)+4y−1y2+1=1+4y−1y2+1\frac{y^2+4y}{y^2+1} = \frac{(y^2+1) + 4y - 1}{y^2+1} = 1 + \frac{4y-1}{y^2+1}

    So the integral becomes:

    ∫(1+4y−1y2+1)dy\int \left( 1 + \frac{4y-1}{y^2+1} \right) dy
  2. Split the integral into simpler parts.

    ∫(1+4y−1y2+1)dy=∫1 dy+∫4yy2+1 dy−∫1y2+1 dy\int \left( 1 + \frac{4y-1}{y^2+1} \right) dy = \int 1 \, dy + \int \frac{4y}{y^2+1} \, dy - \int \frac{1}{y^2+1} \, dy
  3. Evaluate each integral.

    The first integral is straightforward:

    ∫1 dy=y\int 1 \, dy = y

    For the second integral, ∫4yy2+1 dy\int \frac{4y}{y^2+1} \, dy, use a substitution. Let u=y2+1u = y^2+1, so du=2y dydu = 2y \, dy. Then 4y dy=2 du4y \, dy = 2 \, du.

    ∫4yy2+1 dy=∫2 duu=2ln⁡∣u∣+C1=2ln⁡(y2+1)+C1\int \frac{4y}{y^2+1} \, dy = \int \frac{2 \, du}{u} = 2 \ln|u| + C_1 = 2 \ln(y^2+1) + C_1

    (Since y2+1y^2+1 is always positive, we can remove the absolute value.)
    The third integral is a standard arctangent form:

    ∫1y2+1 dy=arctan⁡(y)+C2\int \frac{1}{y^2+1} \, dy = \arctan(y) + C_2
  4. Combine the results.

    ∫y3+4y2y3+ydy=y+2ln⁡(y2+1)−arctan⁡(y)+C\int \frac{y^3+4y^2}{y^3+y} dy = y + 2 \ln(y^2+1) - \arctan(y) + C

    The final answer is y+2ln⁡(y2+1)−arctan⁡(y)+Cy + 2 \ln(y^2+1) - \arctan(y) + C.
