asb92, do you mean:

1/(3-x)^2

or

1/(3-x^2) ?

<input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><!--Session data--><input onclick="jsCall();" id="jsProxy" type="hidden">
integral of (3-X)^(-2)
[ (3-X)^(-1)/(-1 * -1) ]
therefore = 1/(3-X) + c

If it's 1/(3-x)^2

Then the answer is 1/(3-x) + C

For the integral to be an inverse sign, the question would need a square root sign over the whole of the denominator...

i srsly dont see how you got sine inverse, even if it was 1/(3-x^2), how is that a sine inverse???
i am pretty sure thats 4 unit and u will have to use partial fractions.
sorry DAI LO .

I misread it ok ? chill cuz, im not a robot, i make mistakes ok ?

If its 1/(3-x^2)

then its

1/sqrt3 tan^-1 (x/sqrt3) + c
