The rate of change of the volume of water in a reservoir, VVV (in megalitres per hour), is modeled by the equation

dVdt=10t+2(t−1)(2t+1),t>1 \frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{10t+2}{(t-1)(2t+1)}, \quad t > 1 dtdV​=(t−1)(2t+1)10t+2​,t>1

where t t\,t is the time in hours since a valve was opened. Use partial fractions and algebraic integration to show that the total change in volume between t=2t = 2t=2 and t=4t = 4t=4 is ln⁡k \ln k\,lnk megalitres, where k k\,k is a fully simplified rational constant to be found.
