(14) ∫(e² lnx / x) dx

(14) ∫(e² lnx / x) dx
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Use substitution
Let $u = \ln x$, then $du=\frac{1}{x}dx$. When $x = e$, $u=\ln e = 1$; when $x=e^{2}$, $u=\ln e^{2}=2$.
Step2: Rewrite the integral
The integral $\int_{e}^{e^{2}}\frac{\ln x}{x}dx$ becomes $\int_{1}^{2}u du$.
Step3: Apply power - rule for integration
The power - rule for integration is $\int x^{n}dx=\frac{x^{n + 1}}{n+1}+C$ ($n\neq - 1$). For $\int_{1}^{2}u du=\left[\frac{u^{2}}{2}\right]_{1}^{2}$.
Step4: Evaluate the definite integral
$\frac{2^{2}}{2}-\frac{1^{2}}{2}=\frac{4}{2}-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}$.
Answer:
$\frac{3}{2}$
