TopicIntegration with Partial Fractions

9 Let \(\mathrm { f } ( x ) = \frac { 2 x ^ { 2 } + 17 x - 17 } { ( 1 + 2 x ) ( 2 - x ) ^ { 2 } }\).
  1. Express \(\mathrm { f } ( x )\) in partial fractions.
  2. Hence show that \(\int _ { 0 } ^ { 1 } \mathrm { f } ( x ) \mathrm { d } x = \frac { 5 } { 2 } - \ln 72\).
