Question:

If $\int \frac{2^{1 / x}}{x^2} d x=a 2^{1 / x}+C$, then $a=$

Options:

$-\log _2 e$

$-\log _e 2$

-1

$1 / 2$

Correct Answer:

$-\log _2 e$

Explanation:

We have,

$\int \frac{2^{1 / x}}{x^2} d x=-\int 2^{1 / x} d\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)=\frac{-2^{1 / x}}{\log _e 2}+C=-\left(\log _2 e\right) 2^{1 / x}+C$

∴  $a=-\log _2 e$
