help with logarithmic integration. I've been googling some tutorials on integrating logarithms for my calc 2 class and I've found a lot of good stuff. Unfortunately nothing has answered how to handle a problem that I have. I've tried u-substitution and have still been getting it wrong or just lost. My problem is the int((9)/(x^3) + (2)/(9x))dx (sorry, I'm a little new to the math section and don't know how to format that nicely). So far I've tried finding a common denominator which changes the equation to (81+2x^2)/(9x^3). I tried doing u=9x^3 and du=27x^2dx or 1/(27)du=x^2 dx. Now the problem is kind of ugly and I'm not sure what to do with that next. We haven't covered integration by parts yet in this class and I've found that comes up, so I'm not sure if it's possible to evaluate witho

We haven't covered integration by parts yet in this class and I've found that comes up, so I'm not sure if it's possible to evaluate without that technique. I really appreciate any help!
Thank you in advance
