integral from 1 to 9 of 1/(2x)

\int_{1}^{9} \frac{1}{2 x} d x

ln (3)

Decimal

1.09861 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{1}^{9} \frac{1}{2 x} d x

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int_{1}^{9} \frac{1}{x} d x

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{x} d x = ln (∣ x ∣)

= \frac{1}{2} [ln ∣ x ∣]_{1}^{9}

Compute the boundaries:

2 ln (3)

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 ln (3)

Simplify

= ln (3)
