Answer

$\frac{1}{5}\cos \frac{5}{x}+C$

Work Step by Step

$\int \frac{\sin(5/x)}{x^2}dx$ Let $u=\frac{5}{x}=5x^{-1}$. Then $du=-5x^{-2}dx=-\frac{5}{x^2}dx$, so $\frac{1}{x^2}dx=-\frac{1}{5}du$. $=\int\sin u*(-\frac{1}{5})du$ $=-\frac{1}{5}\int\sin u du$ $=-\frac{1}{5}(-\cos u+C)$ $=\frac{1}{5}\cos \frac{5}{x}+C$
