Find the antiderivative of f(x)=ln(lnx)+(lnx)−2 whose graph passes through (e,e)
Solution
Antiderivative means integration and used for the opposite of the word derivative. Apply integration by parts wherever required which is given as
∫f(x)g(x)dx=f(x)∫g(x)dx−∫f′(x)∫g(x)dxdx
And use the following identities
dxd(lnx)=x1,∫xndx=n+1xn+1
Complete step-by-step answer:
The word antiderivative is the substitution of the word ‘integration’ or opposite of derivative.
So, we have function f(x)=ln(lnx)+(lnx)−2 where we need to determine antiderivative of f (x) if it’s passing through (e, e).
Now, let I be the antiderivative of f(x); hence, we can write
I=∫(ln(lnx)+(lnx)−2)dx ……………… (i)
Now, we can substitute ‘lnx’ as ‘t’ for simplifying the given integral so, we have
lnx = t or
logex=t
As we know that logax=N can be written as x=aN. So, we get from the above relation as:
x=et
Now, differentiate it w.r.t ‘x’
dxd(x)=dxd(et)1=etdxdtdx=etdt...............(ii)
∵dxdex=ex
So, we can re-write equation (i) with respect to variable ‘t’ as
I=∫(lnt+t−2)etdt
I=∫etlntdt+∫t2etdt I1 I2 …………………… (iii)
Let us calculate value of I2 with the help of integration by parts which is given as
∫f(x)g(x)dx=f(x)∫g(x)dx−∫f′(x)∫g(x)dxdx
So, I2 can be expressed in form of integration by parts by supposing f(x)=etand g(x)=(t21) in the above equation by the ILATE rule, it can be given as:
ILATE stands for
I – Inverse trigonometry
L – Logarithm
A – Algebraic
T – Trigonometry
E – Exponential
It means ILATE consists of 5 different functions as mentioned above. So, the purpose of this rule is to decide the priority of the first function and second i.e. which function is going for the integration and which is going for the differentiation. So, according to the above order, we decide the priority of function (1 and 2) involved in the integration by parts. So, we can use above mentioned identity with the given integral I2
Hence, we get
I2=∫ett−2dt=et∫t−2dt−∫dtdet∫t−2dtdt
As we know
∫xndx=n+1xn+1,dxd(ex)=ex
Hence, on simplifying equation of I2 , we get
I2=et(t−1)−∫et(t−1)dt
Or
I2=t−ett+∫tetdt
Now, using the integration by parts again with the ∫tetdt, we get
I2=t−et+et∫t1dt−∫dtdet∫t1dtdt
Now, we know
∫x1dx=logex
dxd=logex
Hence, we get
I2=t−et+etloget−∫etlogetdt+c.............(iv)
Now, we can put value of I2 from equation (iv) to equation (iii) and hence, we get
I=∫etlogetdt+t−et+etloget+c−∫etlogetdt
So, we can cancel the term ∫etlogetdt from the above expression.
Hence, we get
I=t−ett+etloget+c
Now, substitute the value of t as logex. Hence, we get
I=logex−elogex+elogexlogelogex+c
As, we know (a)logab=b. Hence, we get
I=logex−x+xloge(logex)+c
Hence, antiderivative of function f(x) is given as
I=logex−x+xloge(logex)+c
Or
y=logex−x+xloge(logex)+c………………. (v)
Now, we can find the value of ’c’ by using the information that the graph of antiderivative is passing through (e, e).
Hence, (e, e) will the satisfy the equation (v), so, we get
e=logee−e+eloge(logee)+c
So, we know logee=1 and loge1=0. Hence we get
e = - e + e (o )+ c
c = 2e
Hence, equation of antiderivative of f(x) can be given from equation (v) ad
logex−x+xloge(logex)+2e
Note: One can integrate the term ∫etlntdt as well for getting the answer. But we can not find the exact values of I1 and I2. So, integrate only one function to cancel out the other. It is the key point for getting the integration I and hence the solution as well.
One may get confused with the term antiderivative. He or she may calculate differentiation of the given function and then try to calculate the inverse of the derivative as well, which is wrong. Antiderivative used for the word integration. So, be clear with the terms as well for these kinds of questions.
