Integral question - $\int\frac{(x+6)\,dx}{4x-x^2}$
Integral question - $\int\frac{(x+6)\,dx}{4x-x^2}$
What I did is $$\int\frac{(x+6)\,dx}{x(4-x)}$$
then
$$\int\frac{(x+6)\,dx}{4x-x^2}= \int\left(\frac{A \,}{x}+\frac{B}{4-x}\right) dx$$
this is the ...

Integral question - $\int\frac{\sqrt{\tan(x)}}{{\cos^2(x)}}dx$
Integral question - $$\int\frac{\sqrt{\tan(x)}}{{\cos^2(x)}}dx$$
I see that $\frac{1}{\cos^2(x)}$ is the derivative of $\tan(x)$ so I set $t = \tan(x)$? or the whole square?
Thanks!

Stieltjes Integral meaning.
Can anybody give a geometrical interpretation of the Stieltjes integral:
$$\int_a^bf(\xi)\,d\alpha(\xi)$$
How would we calculate?
$$\int_a^b \xi^3\,d\alpha(\xi)$$
for example.

This is the integral : $$\int\frac{\sin\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x}}$$
I thinking about put universal identity but not sure, I know that $\sin(x) = \dfrac{2t}{1+t^2}$.
But what about the square root? Instead ...
