Evaluate the following integrals:

Question:

Evaluate the following integrals:

$\int e^{x} \frac{(x-4)}{(x-2)^{3}} d x$

Solution:

Let $I=\int e^{x} \frac{(x-4)}{(x-2)^{3}} d x$

$=\int e^{x} \frac{(x-2)-2)}{(x-2)^{3}} d x$

$=\int e^{x}\left\{\frac{1}{(x-2)^{2}}-\frac{2}{(x-2)^{2}}\right\} d x$

Let $f(x)=\frac{1}{(x-2)^{2}}$ and $f^{\prime}(x)=\frac{2}{(x-2)^{2}}$

We know that, $\int e^{x}\left\{f(x)+f^{\prime}(x)\right\}=e^{x} f(x)+c$

$I=\frac{e^{x}}{(x-2)^{2}}+c$
