$$\int\limits_{0}^{1} \frac{x}{x - 1} \left(x - 2\right)^{2}\, dx$$

Integral((x/(x - 1))*(x - 2)^2, (x, 0, 1))

Detail solution

There are multiple ways to do this integral.
Method #1
1. Rewrite the integrand:
  
  $\frac{x}{x - 1} \left(x - 2\right)^{2} = x^{2} - 3 x + 1 + \frac{1}{x - 1}$
2. Integrate term-by-term:
  1. The integral of $x^{n}$ is $\frac{x^{n + 1}}{n + 1}$ when $n \neq -1$ :
    
    $\int x^{2}\, dx = \frac{x^{3}}{3}$
  1. The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:
    
    $\int \left(- 3 x\right)\, dx = - 3 \int x\, dx$
    1. The integral of $x^{n}$ is $\frac{x^{n + 1}}{n + 1}$ when $n \neq -1$ :
      
      $\int x\, dx = \frac{x^{2}}{2}$
    So, the result is: $- \frac{3 x^{2}}{2}$
  1. The integral of a constant is the constant times the variable of integration:
    
    $\int 1\, dx = x$
  1. Let $u = x - 1$ .
    
    Then let $du = dx$ and substitute $du$ :
    
    $\int \frac{1}{u}\, du$
    1. The integral of $\frac{1}{u}$ is $\log{\left(u \right)}$ .
    Now substitute $u$ back in:
    
    $\log{\left(x - 1 \right)}$
  The result is: $\frac{x^{3}}{3} - \frac{3 x^{2}}{2} + x + \log{\left(x - 1 \right)}$
Method #2
1. Rewrite the integrand:
  
  $\frac{x}{x - 1} \left(x - 2\right)^{2} = \frac{x^{3} - 4 x^{2} + 4 x}{x - 1}$
2. Rewrite the integrand:
  
  $\frac{x^{3} - 4 x^{2} + 4 x}{x - 1} = x^{2} - 3 x + 1 + \frac{1}{x - 1}$
3. Integrate term-by-term:
  1. The integral of $x^{n}$ is $\frac{x^{n + 1}}{n + 1}$ when $n \neq -1$ :
    
    $\int x^{2}\, dx = \frac{x^{3}}{3}$
  1. The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:
    
    $\int \left(- 3 x\right)\, dx = - 3 \int x\, dx$
    1. The integral of $x^{n}$ is $\frac{x^{n + 1}}{n + 1}$ when $n \neq -1$ :
      
      $\int x\, dx = \frac{x^{2}}{2}$
    So, the result is: $- \frac{3 x^{2}}{2}$
  1. The integral of a constant is the constant times the variable of integration:
    
    $\int 1\, dx = x$
  1. Let $u = x - 1$ .

    Now substitute $u$ back in:
    
    $\log{\left(x - 1 \right)}$
  The result is: $\frac{x^{3}}{3} - \frac{3 x^{2}}{2} + x + \log{\left(x - 1 \right)}$
Method #3
1. Rewrite the integrand:
  
  $\frac{x}{x - 1} \left(x - 2\right)^{2} = \frac{x^{3}}{x - 1} - \frac{4 x^{2}}{x - 1} + \frac{4 x}{x - 1}$

      The integral of $\frac{1}{u}$ is $\log{\left(u \right)}$ .
      
      Now substitute $u$ back in:
      
      $\log{\left(x - 1 \right)}$
    The result is: $\frac{x^{3}}{3} + \frac{x^{2}}{2} + x + \log{\left(x - 1 \right)}$
  1. The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:

      The result is: $\frac{x^{2}}{2} + x + \log{\left(x - 1 \right)}$
    So, the result is: $- 2 x^{2} - 4 x - 4 \log{\left(x - 1 \right)}$
  1. The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:
    
    $\int \frac{4 x}{x - 1}\, dx = 4 \int \frac{x}{x - 1}\, dx$
    1. Rewrite the integrand:
      
      $\frac{x}{x - 1} = 1 + \frac{1}{x - 1}$

      Now substitute $u$ back in:
      
      $\log{\left(x - 1 \right)}$
      
      The result is: $x + \log{\left(x - 1 \right)}$
    So, the result is: $4 x + 4 \log{\left(x - 1 \right)}$
  The result is: $\frac{x^{3}}{3} - \frac{3 x^{2}}{2} + x + \log{\left(x - 1 \right)}$
Add the constant of integration:
