Evaluate the following integral:

Question: Evaluate the following integral: $\int \frac{1}{x\left\{6(\log x)^{2}+7 \log x+2\right\}} d x$ Solution: Let substitute $u=\log x \Rightarrow d u=\frac{1}{x} d x$, so the given equation becomes $\int \frac{1}{x\left\{6(\log x)^{2}+7 \log x+2\right\}} d x=\int \frac{1}{\left\{6 u^{2}+7 u+2\right\}} d u \ldots$ (i) Factorizing the denominator, we get $\int \frac{1}{(2 u+1)(3 u+2)} d u$ The denominator is factorized, so let separate the fraction through partial fraction, hence let $\frac{...
