tell if integral 1/(xlnx) from 0 to 1/e converge or diverge?
you can use a substitution here, let u=lnx, then it's derivative is a equivalent representation of what you have in the function already present.
i would get ln(ln x) but that doesnt tell me if it converge or diverge
substitute the limits then...if you get \(\infty\) then it diverges...it converges if you get a "real" answer
I see, I get it.
it diverges, since my calc says domain error
hmm
just don't write that down on an exam *smiles*.
lol. okay, but it does diverge rt?
rather that the natural log of zero is undefined (which is what your calculator tells you indeed), undefined means that the limit doesn't exist, a bit far fetched in this context since we're dealing with an integral, but yes it diverges.
