Math Problem Statement

6ln(x)x\int\frac{6\ln\left(x\right)}{x}

Solution

The integral you're asking to solve is:

6ln(x)xdx\int \frac{6 \ln(x)}{x} \, dx

This can be solved using the technique of integration by parts. The formula for integration by parts is:

udv=uvvdu\int u \, dv = uv - \int v \, du

Step 1: Identify uu and dvdv

We choose:

  • u=ln(x)u = \ln(x) (since the derivative of ln(x)\ln(x) simplifies nicely)
  • dv=6xdxdv = \frac{6}{x} \, dx

Step 2: Differentiate uu and integrate dvdv

  • du=1xdxdu = \frac{1}{x} \, dx
  • v=61xdx=6ln(x)v = 6 \int \frac{1}{x} \, dx = 6 \ln(x)

Step 3: Apply the integration by parts formula

Now apply the formula:

6ln(x)xdx=6ln(x)ln(x)6ln(x)1xdx\int \frac{6 \ln(x)}{x} \, dx = 6 \ln(x) \cdot \ln(x) - \int 6 \ln(x) \cdot \frac{1}{x} \, dx

Step 4: Simplify the resulting expression

6ln(x)xdx=6(ln(x))261xdx\int \frac{6 \ln(x)}{x} \, dx = 6 (\ln(x))^2 - \int 6 \cdot \frac{1}{x} \, dx

The remaining integral is straightforward:

6xdx=6ln(x)\int \frac{6}{x} \, dx = 6 \ln(x)

Step 5: Final answer

Thus, the final result is:

6ln(x)xdx=6(ln(x))26ln(x)+C\int \frac{6 \ln(x)}{x} \, dx = 6 (\ln(x))^2 - 6 \ln(x) + C

where CC is the constant of integration.

  2. Solve xln(x)dx\int x \ln(x) \, dx using integration by parts.
  3. Find ln2(x)dx\int \ln^2(x) \, dx.
  4. Evaluate exln(x)dx\int e^x \ln(x) \, dx.

Tip: When choosing uu in integration by parts, logarithmic functions often simplify well as uu since their derivatives are simpler.
