Markscheme / solution

* This question is from an exam for a previous syllabus, and may contain minor differences in marking or structure.

METHOD 1

write as  1 × ( ln x ) 2 d x        (M1)

= x ( ln x ) 2 x × 2 ( ln x ) x d x ( = x ( ln x ) 2 2 ln x )       M1A1

= x ( ln x ) 2 2 x ln x + 2 d x        (M1)(A1)

= x ( ln x ) 2 2 x ln x + 2 x + c       A1

 

METHOD 2

let  u = ln x       M1

d u d x = 1 x

u 2 e u d u       A1

= u 2 e u 2 u e u d u       M1

= u 2 e u 2 u e u + 2 e u d u       A1

= u 2 e u 2 u e u + 2 e u + c

= x ( ln x ) 2 2 x ln x + 2 x + c       M1A1

 

METHOD 3

Setting up  u = ln x and  d v d x = ln x       M1

ln x ( x ln x x ) ( ln x 1 ) d x      M1A1

= x ( ln x ) 2 x ln x ( x ln x x ) + x + c      M1A1

= x ( ln x ) 2 2 x ln x + 2 x + c       A1
