The function can be decomposed in partial fractions as follows...

$f(x)= \frac{x^{3}+ 4\cdot x^{2} + 9\cdot x + 14}{x^{2} + 4\cdot x + 3}= x + \frac {6\cdot x + 14}{x^{2} + 4\cdot x + 3}= x + \frac{a}{x+3} + \frac{b}{x+1}$

The constants a and b are easily found, after that f(*) can be integrated in 'standard fashion'...

Kind regards
