integral from 1 to 5 of (ln(x))/(x^2)

\int_{1}^{5} \frac{ln ( x )}{x ^{2}} d x

\frac{- ln ( 5 ) - 1}{5} + 1

Decimal

0.47811 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{1}^{5} \frac{ln ( x )}{x ^{2}} d x

Apply Integration By Parts

= [- \frac{ln ( x )}{x} - \int - \frac{1}{x ^{2}} d x]_{1}^{5}

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

= [- \frac{ln ( x )}{x} - \frac{1}{x}]_{1}^{5}

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

\frac{a}{c} \pm \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \pm b}{c}

= [\frac{- ln ( x ) - 1}{x}]_{1}^{5}

Compute the boundaries:

\frac{- ln ( 5 ) - 1}{5} + 1

= \frac{- ln ( 5 ) - 1}{5} + 1
