$x\log_e x + c$: where c is an arbitrary constant $e^x\log_e x + c$: where c is an arbitrary constant $\frac{e^x}{\log_e x} + c$: where c is an arbitrary constant $\frac{x}{\log_e x} + c$: where c is an arbitrary constant |
$\frac{x}{\log_e x} + c$: where c is an arbitrary constant |
The correct answer is Option (4) → $\frac{x}{\log_e x} + c$: where c is an arbitrary constant $\int\left\{\frac{1}{\log_e x}-\frac{1}{(\log_e x)^2}\right\}dx$ Put $t=\log_e x$ so that $dx=e^t dt$ and $x=e^t$. $\int\left(\frac{1}{t}-\frac{1}{t^2}\right)e^t dt$ $=\int \frac{e^t}{t}dt - \int \frac{e^t}{t^2}dt$ Derivative of $\frac{e^t}{t}$: $\frac{d}{dt}\left(\frac{e^t}{t}\right)=\frac{e^t t - e^t}{t^2}=\frac{e^t}{t}-\frac{e^t}{t^2}$ Thus the integrand equals $\frac{d}{dt}\left(\frac{e^t}{t}\right)$. $\text{ therefore }\;\int\left(\frac{1}{t}-\frac{1}{t^2}\right)e^t dt=\frac{e^t}{t}+C$ Substitute $t=\log_e x$ and $e^t=x$: $=\frac{x}{\log_e x}+C$ The value of the integral is $\frac{x}{\log_e x}+C$. |
