Integration by parts is used when the integrand is a product of two functions, and the formula is:\u222bu\u2009dv=uv\u2212\u222bv\u2009du\\int u\\, dv = uv &#8211; \\int v\\, du\u222budv=uv\u2212\u222bvdu<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We assign u=ln\u2061(3x)u = \\ln(3x)u=ln(3x), which simplifies upon differentiation. Its derivative is du=1xdxdu = \\frac{1}{x} dxdu=x1\u200bdx. The remaining part, dv=(2x\u22121)dxdv = (2x &#8211; 1)dxdv=(2x\u22121)dx, integrates to v=x2\u2212xv = x^2 &#8211; xv=x2\u2212x since the integral of 2x2x2x is x2x^2&#215;2, and the integral of \u22121-1\u22121 is \u2212x-x\u2212x.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using the integration by parts formula, we compute uv=(x2\u2212x)ln\u2061(3x)uv = (x^2 &#8211; x)\\ln(3x)uv=(x2\u2212x)ln(3x), and then subtract the integral of v\u22c5duv \\cdot duv\u22c5du, which becomes \u222b(x2\u2212x)\u22c51xdx=\u222b(x\u22121)dx\\int (x^2 &#8211; x)\\cdot \\frac{1}{x} dx = \\int (x &#8211; 1) dx\u222b(x2\u2212x)\u22c5x1\u200bdx=\u222b(x\u22121)dx. This simplifies to x22\u2212x\\frac{x^2}{2} &#8211; x2x2\u200b\u2212x. Finally, putting everything together, we get:(x2\u2212x)ln\u2061(3x)\u2212(x22\u2212x)+C(x^2 &#8211; x)\\ln(3x) &#8211; \\left( \\frac{x^2}{2} &#8211; x \\right) + C(x2\u2212x)ln(3x)\u2212(2&#215;2\u200b\u2212x)+C<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This simplifies to the final answer:(x2\u2212x)ln\u2061(3x)\u2212x22+x+C(x^2 &#8211; x)\\ln(3x) &#8211; \\frac{x^2}{2} + x + C(x2\u2212x)ln(3x)\u22122&#215;2\u200b+x+C<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the provided choices, this exactly matches the <strong>first<\/strong> option in the list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"852\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/learnexams-banner8-358.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32283\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/learnexams-banner8-358.jpeg 852w, https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/learnexams-banner8-358-250x300.jpeg 250w, https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/learnexams-banner8-358-768x923.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 852px) 100vw, 852px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Correct Answer and Explanation is: We are given the integral:\u222b(2x\u22121)ln\u2061(3x)\u2009dx\\int (2x &#8211; 1)\\ln(3x)\\, dx\u222b(2x\u22121)ln(3x)dx This integral involves a product of functions, so we apply integration by parts: Step 1: Identify parts Let: Step 2: Apply the integration by parts formula \u222bu\u2009dv=uv\u2212\u222bv\u2009du\\int u\\, dv = uv &#8211; \\int v\\, du\u222budv=uv\u2212\u222bvdu Substitute in:\u222b(2x\u22121)ln\u2061(3x)\u2009dx=(x2\u2212x)ln\u2061(3x)\u2212\u222b(x2\u2212x)\u22c51xdx\\int (2x &#8211; 1)\\ln(3x)\\, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-32281","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-quiz-questions"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32281","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=32281"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32281\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":32284,"href":"https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32281\/revisions\/32284"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=32281"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=32281"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=32281"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
