Integral of $$$\frac{1}{6 - \frac{a}{50}}$$$

Find $$$\int \frac{1}{6 - \frac{a}{50}}\, da$$$.

Let $$$u=6 - \frac{a}{50}$$$.

Then $$$du=\left(6 - \frac{a}{50}\right)^{\prime }da = - \frac{da}{50}$$$ (steps can be seen »), and we have that $$$da = - 50 du$$$.

Thus,

$${\color{red}{\int{\frac{1}{6 - \frac{a}{50}} d a}}} = {\color{red}{\int{\left(- \frac{50}{u}\right)d u}}}$$

Apply the constant multiple rule $$$\int c f{\left(u \right)}\, du = c \int f{\left(u \right)}\, du$$$ with $$$c=-50$$$ and $$$f{\left(u \right)} = \frac{1}{u}$$$:

$${\color{red}{\int{\left(- \frac{50}{u}\right)d u}}} = {\color{red}{\left(- 50 \int{\frac{1}{u} d u}\right)}}$$

The integral of $$$\frac{1}{u}$$$ is $$$\int{\frac{1}{u} d u} = \ln{\left(\left|{u}\right| \right)}$$$:

$$- 50 {\color{red}{\int{\frac{1}{u} d u}}} = - 50 {\color{red}{\ln{\left(\left|{u}\right| \right)}}}$$

Recall that $$$u=6 - \frac{a}{50}$$$:

$$- 50 \ln{\left(\left|{{\color{red}{u}}}\right| \right)} = - 50 \ln{\left(\left|{{\color{red}{\left(6 - \frac{a}{50}\right)}}}\right| \right)}$$

Therefore,

$$\int{\frac{1}{6 - \frac{a}{50}} d a} = - 50 \ln{\left(\left|{\frac{a}{50} - 6}\right| \right)}$$

Simplify:

$$\int{\frac{1}{6 - \frac{a}{50}} d a} = 50 \left(- \ln{\left(\left|{a - 300}\right| \right)} + \ln{\left(50 \right)}\right)$$

Add the constant of integration:

$$\int{\frac{1}{6 - \frac{a}{50}} d a} = 50 \left(- \ln{\left(\left|{a - 300}\right| \right)} + \ln{\left(50 \right)}\right)+C$$

$$$\int \frac{1}{6 - \frac{a}{50}}\, da = 50 \left(- \ln\left(\left|{a - 300}\right|\right) + \ln\left(50\right)\right) + C$$$A
