integral of (xln(x)-x)

\int (x ln (x) - x) d x

\frac{1}{2} x^{2} ln (x) - \frac{x ^{2}}{4} - \frac{x ^{2}}{2} + C

Solution steps

\int x ln (x) - x d x

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

= \int x ln (x) d x - \int x d x

\int x ln (x) d x = \frac{1}{2} x^{2} ln (x) - \frac{x ^{2}}{4}

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

= \frac{1}{2} x^{2} ln (x) - \frac{x ^{2}}{4} - \frac{x ^{2}}{2}

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{2} x^{2} ln (x) - \frac{x ^{2}}{4} - \frac{x ^{2}}{2} + C
