indefinite integral u sub
\[\int\limits_{?}^{?}\frac{ (lnx)^{2}+2\ln(x^{2}-1) }{ x }\]
so what I did was break it up first
\[\int\limits_{?}^{?}\frac{ (lnx)^{2} }{ x }dx+\int\limits_{?}^{?}\frac{ 2\ln(x^{2}-1) }{ x }dx\]
and I can solve the first half but not the second
\[\int\limits_{}^{}\frac{2\ln(x-1)}{x} dx+\int\limits_{}^{}\frac{2 \ln(x+1)}{x} dx\] don't know if this helps on the second part yet but this something we can also do
x^2-1=(x-1)(x+1) ln(ab)=ln(a)+ln(b) is what i did
I don't think that is going to help us :(
me too
http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=int%282+log_e%28x%5E2-1%29%2Fx+%2Cx%29 wolfram says it isn't elementary
So I wonder if this is the exact integral you started with
the sheet is unclear so I wasnt sure if it should be ln(x^2-1) or ln(x^2)-1. I went with the former but I can post a pic of the question
so I guess they didn't use ( ) I hate when they don't do that it does make it confusing I think we are going to have to go with the latter interpretation
\[\int\limits \frac{( \ln(x))^2+2 \ln(x^2)-1}{x} dx\]
yep that would work :)
just a simple u = ln x substitution
\[\int\limits \frac{ (\ln(x))^2}{x} dx+4 \int\limits_{}^{}\frac{\ln(x)}{x} dx-\int\limits_{}^{}\frac{1}{x} dx\] yeah use @kidrah69 's suggest sub for both the first two
no need to even separate it....right ?
I think they would put parenthesis around that whole thing if they meant that whole thing but honestly I think for clarity purposes they should go ahead in throw in ( ) just in case
no need
\(\Large \int (u^2+4u-1) du\) see if you get this :) which is easy to integrate
I did because I thought it looked glamorous
don't forget to resubstitute back u = ln x
what happen to integration 1/x w.r.t x?
no sub needed for the last integral
isnt \[\int\limits \frac{ 1 }{ x }=lnx\]
yes
u missed dx and +c but yes
well actually ln|x|+c
putting the bars around the x is "more correct "
correct \(\checkmark \) more correct \(\huge \checkmark \) :P
ok so I got\[\frac{ 1 }{ 3 }(lnx)^{3}+2(lnx)^{2}-lnx\]
+c and thats absolutely correct! :)
Thanks. Would you be willing to help me with one more question?
wait should u get that 2 ?
ok, yes
\[\int\limits\limits \frac{ (\ln(x))^2}{x} dx+4 \int\limits\limits_{}^{}\frac{\ln(x)}{x} dx-\int\limits\limits_{}^{}\frac{1}{x} dx \\ \int\limits_{}^{} (\ln(x))^2 d(\ln(x)) +4 \int\limits_{}^{} \ln(x) d(\ln(x)) -\ln|x|+C \\ \frac{(\ln(x))^3}{3}+4 \frac{(\ln(x))^2}{2}-\ln|x|+C\]
looks correct to me
just confirming :)
For this I expanded it using properties of logs and then took the derivative and got\[y'=\frac{ 4 }{ 2x+1 }+\frac{ 3 }{ x-1 }-\frac{ 6 }{ 2x-1 }-\frac{ 2 }{ x+1 }\] I wanted to know if there might be an easier way to combine this or if I just have to work through the algebra
you wanted to integrate y w.r.t x ?
\(\ln ab = \ln a + \ln b \) \(\ln a^b = b \ln a \)
ok
if you were meant to differentiate y you did it correctly do you really have to combine the fractions lol
I dont know. I dont think so since the next question is the same just without the ln so we take ln of both sides and do the same thing, but Im just not sure
so I wanted to ask
well no need to take ln of both sides since there is ln just on that one side but if you really want to combine the fractions I would start combining the fractions that have conjugate bottoms \[y'=\frac{4}{2x+1}-\frac{6}{2x-1}+\frac{3}{x-1}-\frac{2}{x+1} \\ y'=\frac{4(2x-1)-6(2x+1)}{(2x+1)(2x-1)}+\frac{3(x+1)-2(x-1)}{(x-1)(x+1)}\]
painful
\[y'=\frac{8x-4-12x-6}{4x^2-1}+\frac{3x+3-2x+2}{x^2-1}\]
then simplify those tops then combine those fractions
alright. Thank you
