Answer

$0.19080$

Work Step by Step

We need to solve the integral. $I=\int_{0}^{0.2} \dfrac{\ln (1+t)}{t} \ dt$ Now, we have: $I=\int_{0}^{0.2} \dfrac{\ln (1+t)}{t} \ dt \\=\int_{0}^{0.2}(\Sigma_{k =1}^{\infty} (-1)^{k+1} \dfrac{t^{k-1}}{k} ) \ dt\\=|\Sigma_{k =1}^{\infty} (-1)^{k+1} \dfrac{t^{k}}{k^2}|_{0}^{0.2}\\=\Sigma_{k =1}^{\infty} (-1)^{k+1} \dfrac{0.2^k}{k^2}$ By using a calculator, we get: $I=0.19080$
