Solution
Hint: To solve the given question, we will first assume that the value of the given integral is I. Then, we will find the value of ∫x3logxdx using the method of by – parts. According to the method of by – parts, we have ∫u.v=v∫udx−∫dxdv∫u(dx)2. In our case, we will take u=x3 and v = log x. After finding this, we will find the value of ∫x3(logx)2dx using by – parts. In this, we will take u=x3logx and v = log x. After finding the value of ∫x3(logx)2dx we will put its value in I and then we will simplify to get the answer.
Complete step-by-step answer:
To start with, we will assume that the value of the given indefinite integral is I. Thus, we will get the following equation
I=∫32x3(logx)2dx
⇒I=32∫x3(logx)2dx.....(i)
Now, the first thing we are going to do is to find the value of ∫x3logxdx. Let its value be A. Thus, we have,
A=∫x3logxdx.....(ii)
Now, we will find the value of A by using it by parts. By – parts is the method of integration when the terms inside the integration are in multiplication. Thus, we have,
∫u.vdx=v∫udx−∫dxdv∫u(dx)2
In our case, we will take u=x3 and v = log x. Thus, we will get,
∫x3logxdx=logx∫x3dx−∫dxd(logx)∫x3(dx)2
The value of ∫xndx=n+1xn+1 and differentiation of log x is x1. Thus, we have,
∫x3logxdx=4x4logx−∫x1[4x4]dx+C1
⇒∫x3logxdx=4x4logx−∫4x3dx+C1
⇒∫x3logxdx=4x4logx−4×4x4+C1
⇒∫x3logxdx=4x4logx−16x4+C1.....(iii)
Now, we will find the value of ∫x3(logx)2dx by the help of by – parts method. Here, we will take u=x3logx and v = log x. Thus, we have,
∫x3(logx)2dx=logx∫x3logxdx−∫dxd(logx)∫x3logx(dx)2
Now, we will put the value of ∫x3logxdx from (iii) to the above equation. Thus, we will get,
⇒∫x3(logx)2dx=logx[4x4logx−16x4]−∫x1[4x4logx−16x4]dx+C
⇒∫x3(logx)2dx=4x4(logx)2−16x4logx−∫4x3logxdx+∫16x3dx+C
Now, we will put the value of ∫x3logxdx in the above equation. Thus, we will get,
⇒∫x3(logx)2dx=4x4(logx)2−16x4logx−41[4x4logx−16x4]+4×16x4+C
⇒∫x3(logx)2dx=4x4[(logx)2−4logx]−16x4logx+64x4+64x4+C
⇒∫x3(logx)2dx=4x4(logx)2−8x4logx+32x4+C
⇒∫x3(logx)2dx=32x4[8(logx)2−4(logx)+1]+C.....(iv)
On putting the values of ∫x3(logx)2dx from (iv) to (i), we will get,
I=32\left[ \dfrac{{{x}^{4}}}{32}\left\\{ 8{{\left( \log x \right)}^{2}}-4\left( \log x \right)+1 \right\\} \right]+C
I=x4[8(logx)2−4logx+1]+C
Hence, option (b) is the right answer.
Note: We can also solve the question by differentiating each option and the option whose differentiation will be equal to 32x3(logx)2 will be the answer. For instance, the differentiation of the term in option (b) is:
\dfrac{d}{dx}\left[ {{x}^{4}}\left\\{ 8{{\left( \log x \right)}^{2}}-4\left( \log x \right)+1 \right\\} \right]=8\dfrac{d}{dx}\left[ {{x}^{4}}{{\left( \log x \right)}^{2}} \right]-4\dfrac{d}{dx}\left[ {{x}^{4}}\log x \right]+\dfrac{d}{dx}{{x}^{4}}
\Rightarrow \dfrac{d}{dx}\left[ {{x}^{4}}\left\\{ 8{{\left( \log x \right)}^{2}}-4\left( \log x \right)+1 \right\\} \right]=8\left[ 4{{x}^{3}}{{\left( \log x \right)}^{2}}+\dfrac{2{{x}^{4}}}{x}\log x \right]-4\left[ 4{{x}^{3}}\log x+\dfrac{{{x}^{4}}}{x} \right]+4{{x}^{3}}
\Rightarrow \dfrac{d}{dx}\left[ {{x}^{4}}\left\\{ 8{{\left( \log x \right)}^{2}}-4\left( \log x \right)+1 \right\\} \right]=32{{x}^{3}}{{\left( \log x \right)}^{2}}+16{{x}^{3}}\log x-16{{x}^{3}}\log x-4{{x}^{3}}+4{{x}^{3}}
\Rightarrow \dfrac{d}{dx}\left[ {{x}^{4}}\left\\{ 8{{\left( \log x \right)}^{2}}-4\left( \log x \right)+1 \right\\} \right]=32{{x}^{3}}{{\left( \log x \right)}^{2}}
Hence, we get the right answer as option (b).
