Homework Statement


##\int \frac{x}{\left(C-x\right)^2}dx=?##
Here ##C## is a constant

Homework Equations

The Attempt at a Solution


##c-x=u## then ##dx=-du##
then it becomes,
##\int \frac{u-c}{\left(u\right)^2}du##
##\int \frac{u}{u^2}-\frac{c}{u^2}du##
From there I found
##ln\left(c-x\right)+\frac{c}{c-x}##
but symbolab says its,
##ln\left(c-x\right)+\frac{x}{c-x}##
I cannot see how ??

It's probably quicker to just differentiate your result than to check it with software from which you learn nothing.

Make sense never thought.
