Q13 / 116 · NTA Abhyas (JEE Main) 2020 · Mathematics · Definite Integration

Let the function F be defined as F x⁡ = ∫ 1 x   e t t dt ,  x⁡ > 0 , then the value of the integral ∫ 1 x⁡ e t t + a dt , where a>0, is

  • A
    e a F x⁡ - F 1 + a
  • B
    e - a F x⁡ + a - F a
  • C
    e a F x⁡ + a - F 1 + a
  • Correct answer
    D
    e - a F x⁡ + a - F 1 + a

Solution

F x = ∫ 1 x e t t dt

I = ∫ 1 x e t t + a dt

Let,  t + a = y   ⇒   dt = dy

Also,  t = 1  ⇒  y = 1 + a  and t = x  ⇒  y = x + a

∴    I = ∫ 1 + a x + a e y - a y dy

          = e - a ∫ 1 + a x + a e y y dy

          = e - a ∫ 1 + a x + a e t t dt

          = e - a F x⁡ + a - F 1 + a

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
