Are there any integration nerds out there to help me with my question?

I feel really stupid because this is a fairly easy question but my head is getting messed around by it and I’m doing a-level maths =/

Anyway, here’s the question: ∫ (x^2-9)/x dx I have an answer but my book often has mistakes so I want to see if you any of you can try it without getting to the answer. I can get the correct answer by splitting the fraction but I’m you split it to : x^2/x - 9/x and then integrating them seperately.

I want to be able to do it using the substitution method i.e substituting x^2-9 as u … etc. but any method will please me. Thanks in advance.
