Answer

$$ \int \frac{e^{x}}{3-e^{2 x}} d x=\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{3}} \ln \left|\frac{e^{x}+\sqrt{3}}{e^{x}-\sqrt{3}}\right|+C $$

Work Step by Step

$$ \int \frac{e^{x}}{3-e^{2 x}} d x $$ If we make the substitution $$ u=u=e^{x}, \quad d u=e^{x} d x $$ and we look at the Table of Integrals , we see that the closest entry is number $101 $ with $a=\sqrt{3}$ so we have: \begin{aligned} \int \frac{e^{x}}{3-e^{2 x}} d x &=\int \frac{d u}{a^{2}-u^{2}} \\ &\stackrel{19}{=} \frac{1}{2 a} \ln \left|\frac{u+a}{u-a}\right|+C\\ &=\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{3}} \ln \left|\frac{e^{x}+\sqrt{3}}{e^{x}-\sqrt{3}}\right|+C \end{aligned}
