Help pleaseyes

rvc (rvc):

\[\int\limits x \log(1+x^{-1})dx=f(x)\log(x+1)+g(x)x^2+Lx+C\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you need help with?

rvc (rvc):

need to find the values of unkown

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What grade are you in, so I can get an idea of what to do

rvc (rvc):

@iambatman @rational pls help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I havent done this in years I tried solving but still aint getting the correct answer

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

I'd say use integration by parts.

rvc (rvc):

thank you so much for a try :)

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

Are you supposed to prove the left side to the right side?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Your welcome I hope you figure out how to solve this equation!

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

Oh you mean right side..

rvc (rvc):

well the right hand side is the ans need to figure out the unknown terms

rvc (rvc):

im trying to do

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

\[\int x\log(1+x^{-1})dx\]\[u = \log(1+x^{-1}) ~,~ du =\frac{1}{1+\frac{1}{x}} \cdot -x^{-2} \implies -\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{x^2}}{\dfrac{x+1}{x}} \implies \text{simplify this...}\]

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

\[dv=xdx~,~ v = \int xdx = \frac{1}{2}x^2\]`

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

I don't really know if this will turn out, that was just my guess. I've got to head off OS, so ttyl, and gl.`

rvc (rvc):

look this is what i got @Jhannybean \[= x^2/2\ \log(x+1) - x^2/2\ \ logx + x/2 \ \ -1/2 \\ (\log(1+x)) + C \]

rvc (rvc):

hey i got it @Jhannybean
