Answer

Radius of convergence is $1$ $\int x^{2}ln(1+x)dx=c+\Sigma_{n=1}^{\infty}(-1)^{n}\dfrac{{x}^{n+3}}{n(n+3)}$

Work Step by Step

The sum of a geometric series with initial term $a$ and common ratio $r$ is $S=\Sigma_{n=0}^{\infty}ar^{n}=\frac{a}{1-r}$ Here, $x^{2}ln(1+x)=\frac{a}{1-r}$ We know that the power series converges when $r=|x|\lt 1$ Hence, the radius of convergence is $1$ $\int x^{2}ln(1+x)dx=c+\Sigma_{n=1}^{\infty}(-1)^{n}\dfrac{{x}^{n+3}}{n(n+3)}$
