x^x(1+ x) d x is equal to
Options
- Ax^x+c
- Bx x+c
- Cx^ x-1 +c
- Dx^x x+c
Correct answer
A. x^x+c
Step-by-step solution
Let I = x^x(1 + x) dx . Consider the function f(x) = x^x . To differentiate f(x) , take the natural logarithm on both sides: (f(x)) = (x^x) = x x . Differentiating both sides with respect to x : 1 f(x) f'(x) = d dx (x x) = x 1 x + x 1 = 1 + x . Therefore, f'(x) = f(x)(1 + x) = x^x(1 + x) . Since the derivative of x^x is x^x(1 + x) , the integral of x^x(1 + x) is x^x + c . Answer: x^x+c
