First you can't factor x^2-x+6 as two separate brackets with the terms inside, unless you want to use complex numbers. And if you want to do that then complex integrating is difficult.

But aside from that, I think you meant x^2-x-6? In that case you can factorise, 2 separate fractions, and simply integrate

Is it possible for you to upload an image of the original question, to avoid any ambiguity about whether that denominator is correct or not?

Also you need to post what you have tried / what your thoughts are, as per forum rules. Thanks :smile:
