Answer

\[ = \frac{{{x^2}\ln x}}{2} - \frac{{{x^2}}}{4} + C\]

Work Step by Step

\[\begin{gathered} \int_{}^{} {x\ln x\,\,dx} \hfill \\ \hfill \\ set\,\,\,the\,\,substitution \hfill \\ \hfill \\ u = \ln x\,\,\,\,\,\,\, \to \,\,\,\,\,\,du = \frac{{dx}}{x} \hfill \\ dv = xdx\,\,\, \to \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,v = \frac{{{x^2}}}{2} \hfill \\ \hfill \\ use\,\,uv - \int_{}^{} {vdu} \hfill \\ \hfill \\ {\text{replacing the values }}{\text{in the equation}} \hfill \\ \hfill \\ = \frac{{{x^2}}}{2}\ln x - \int_{}^{} {\,\left( {\frac{{{x^2}}}{2}} \right)\,\left( {\frac{{dx}}{x}} \right)} \hfill \\ \hfill \\ integrate\,\,{\text{using }}\int {{x^n}dx = \frac{{{x^{n + 1}}}}{{n + 1}} + C} \hfill \\ \hfill \\ = \frac{{{x^2}\ln x}}{2} - \frac{{{x^2}}}{4} + C \hfill \\ \end{gathered} \]
