Answer

$$\frac{3}{4}\ln \left| x \right| - \tan x + C$$

Work Step by Step

$$\eqalign{ & \int {\left[ {\frac{3}{{4x}} - {{\sec }^2}x} \right]} dx \cr & {\text{sum rule}} \cr & = \int {\frac{3}{{4x}}} dx - \int {{{\sec }^2}x} dx \cr & {\text{multiple constant rule}} \cr & = \frac{3}{4}\int {\frac{1}{x}} dx - \int {{{\sec }^2}x} dx \cr & {\text{integrate by using the rules}} \cr & \int {\frac{1}{x}dx} = \ln \left| x \right| + C{\text{ and }}\int {{{\sec }^2}x} dx = \tan x + C \cr & = \frac{3}{4}\ln \left| x \right| - \tan x + C \cr} $$
