we had this before  if we cannot find “nice” factors of the  denominator it′s getting complicated  I show you how to solve  ∫(dx/(x^3 +3x−((26(√3))/9))) instead. ((26(√3))/9)=5.003702...  but x^3 +3x−((26(√3))/9)=(x−((2(√3))/3))(x^2 +((2(√3))/3)x+((13)/3))  ⇒  ∫(dx/(x^3 +3x−((26(√3))/9)))=∫(dx/(7(x−((2(√3))/3))))−∫((x+((4(√3))/3))/(7(x^2 +((2(√3))/3)x+((13)/3))))dx  and we can “easily” solve these  =(1/7)ln (3x−2(√3)) −(1/(14))ln (3x^2 +2(√3)x+12) +((√3)/(14))arctan ((3x+(√3))/6) +C  the problem with  x^3 +3x+5 is that the real root is  (((5/2)+((√(29))/2)))^(1/3) −((−(5/2)+((√(29))/2)))^(1/3)   and you don′t want to write it out
