What is the antiderivative of #1/x^3#? Calculus Introduction to Integration Integrals of Rational Functions 1 Answer MoominDave Jun 26, 2018 #-1/(2x^2)+C# Explanation: #intx^ndx=x^(n+1)/(n+1)+C#, where #n!=-1#. So #int1/x^3dx=intx^(-3)dx=-1/2x^(-2)+C=-1/(2x^2)+C# Answer link Related questions How do you integrate #(x+1)/(x^2+2x+1)#? How do you integrate #x/(1+x^4)#?
