Answer

$$ \frac{1}{4}x^4\ln x-\frac{1}{16}x^4+C$$

Work Step by Step

Given $$\int x^{3} \ln x d x$$ Let \begin{align*} u&=\ln x\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ dv=x^3dx\\ du&= \frac{1}{x}dx\ \ \ \ \ \ \ v = \frac{1}{4}x^4 \end{align*} Then \begin{align*} \int x^{3} \ln x d x&= \frac{1}{4}x^4\ln x-\frac{1}{4}\int x^3dx\\ &= \frac{1}{4}x^4\ln x-\frac{1}{16}x^4+C \end{align*}
