integration check

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\int\limits_{0}^{\infty}\frac{dx}{\sqrt{lnx}}\] what i did: let u=-lnx x=e^-u dx=-e^-u du when x=0 --> y=infinity when x=1 --> y=0 \[\int\limits_{0}^{\infty}y^{-\frac{1}{2}}e^{-y}dy=\gamma (\frac{1}{2})=\sqrt{\pi}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its u instead of y :S

OpenStudy (experimentx):

let u=-lnx ???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah

OpenStudy (experimentx):

that would be square root of negative ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why squareroot? i dont need a sqrt?

OpenStudy (experimentx):

\( \frac{1}{\sqrt{\ln x}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{-u}} \) ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah but i didnt do that, i used another way

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thts why x=e^-u

OpenStudy (zarkon):

\[\ln(x)<0\text{ for }0<x<1\] therefore \(\sqrt{\ln(x)}\) is not a real number.

OpenStudy (zarkon):

did you want this? \[\int\limits_{0}^{1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{-\ln(x)}}dx=\sqrt{\pi}\]
