Answer

$F(x)=2x+3\cdot\tan^{-1}x+C$

Work Step by Step

$f(x)=\displaystyle \frac{2x^{2}+5}{x^{2}+1}$ $=\displaystyle \frac{2x^{2}+2+3}{x^{2}+1}$ $=\displaystyle \frac{2(x^{2}+1)}{x^{2}+1}+3\cdot\frac{1}{x^{2}+1}$ $=2+3\displaystyle \cdot\frac{1}{x^{2}+1}$ $=2x^{0}+3\displaystyle \cdot\frac{1}{x^{2}+1}$ From the Table of Antiderivatives, $ f(x)=c\displaystyle \cdot x^{n}\Rightarrow F(x)=c\frac{x^{n+1}}{n+1},\quad$ and $f(x)=\displaystyle \frac{1}{1+x^{2}} \Rightarrow F(x)=\tan^{-1}x$ So for $f(x)=2x^{0}+3\displaystyle \cdot\frac{1}{x^{2}+1}$, $F(x)=2\displaystyle \cdot\frac{x^{0+1}}{0+1}+3\cdot\tan^{-1}x+C$ $F(x)=2x+3\cdot\tan^{-1}x+C$
