1. Integrate $f'(x)$ to find the general expression for $f(x)$.

f(x)=∫(sin⁡3x−12x+1)dxf(x) = \int \left( \sin 3x - \frac{1}{2x + 1} \right) dx
f(x)=−13cos⁡3x−12ln⁡(2x+1)+Cf(x) = -\frac{1}{3}\cos 3x - \frac{1}{2}\ln(2x + 1) + C

2. Use the given condition $f(0) = \frac{2}{3}$ to find the constant of integration $C$.

f(0)=−13cos⁡(0)−12ln⁡(1)+C=23f(0) = -\frac{1}{3}\cos(0) - \frac{1}{2}\ln(1) + C = \frac{2}{3}
−13(1)−0+C=23-\frac{1}{3}(1) - 0 + C = \frac{2}{3}
C=23+13=1C = \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{3} = 1
f(x)=−13cos⁡3x−12ln⁡(2x+1)+1f(x) = -\frac{1}{3}\cos 3x - \frac{1}{2}\ln(2x + 1) + 1

3. Differentiate $f'(x)$ to find $f''(x)$.

f′(x)=sin⁡3x−(2x+1)−1f'(x) = \sin 3x - (2x + 1)^{-1}
f′′(x)=ddx(sin⁡3x)−ddx((2x+1)−1)f''(x) = \frac{d}{dx}(\sin 3x) - \frac{d}{dx}((2x + 1)^{-1})
f′′(x)=3cos⁡3x−(−1)(2x+1)−2(2)f''(x) = 3\cos 3x - (-1)(2x + 1)^{-2}(2)
f′′(x)=3cos⁡3x+2(2x+1)2f''(x) = 3\cos 3x + \frac{2}{(2x + 1)^2}

4. Substitute $f(x)$ and $f''(x)$ into the expression $6f(x) + f''(x)$ and simplify.

6f(x)+f′′(x)=6(−13cos⁡3x−12ln⁡(2x+1)+1)+(3cos⁡3x+2(2x+1)2)6f(x) + f''(x) = 6\left( -\frac{1}{3}\cos 3x - \frac{1}{2}\ln(2x + 1) + 1 \right) + \left( 3\cos 3x + \frac{2}{(2x + 1)^2} \right)
=−2cos⁡3x−3ln⁡(2x+1)+6+3cos⁡3x+2(2x+1)2= -2\cos 3x - 3\ln(2x + 1) + 6 + 3\cos 3x + \frac{2}{(2x + 1)^2}
=cos⁡3x−3ln⁡(2x+1)+2(2x+1)2+6= \cos 3x - 3\ln(2x + 1) + \frac{2}{(2x + 1)^2} + 6

Answer

cos⁡3x−3ln⁡(2x+1)+2(2x+1)2+6\cos 3x - 3\ln(2x + 1) + \frac{2}{(2x + 1)^2} + 6
