integral of xln(x^{-1})

\int x ln (x^{- 1}) d x

- \frac{1}{2} x^{2} ln (x) + \frac{x ^{2}}{4} + C

Solution steps

\int x ln (x^{- 1}) d x

Simplify

x ln (x^{- 1}) : - x ln (x)

= \int - x ln (x) d x

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= - \int x ln (x) d x

Apply Integration By Parts

: \frac{1}{2} x^{2} ln (x) - \int \frac{x}{2} d x

= - (\frac{1}{2} x^{2} ln (x) - \int \frac{x}{2} d x)

\int \frac{x}{2} d x = \frac{x ^{2}}{4}

= - (\frac{1}{2} x^{2} ln (x) - \frac{x ^{2}}{4})

Simplify

= - \frac{1}{2} x^{2} ln (x) + \frac{x ^{2}}{4}

Add a constant to the solution

= - \frac{1}{2} x^{2} ln (x) + \frac{x ^{2}}{4} + C

\int \frac{x ^{3} - 1}{x ^{2} + x} d x

\int (6 x^{2} + 2 x) d x

\int 2 x (1 + x^{2}) d x

\int 2 sin (\frac{π x}{2}) d x

\int \frac{x ^{4}}{8} d x
