Q38 / 90 · JEE Main 2022 (27 Jun Shift 2) · Mathematics

The integral ∫01171xdx, where · denotes the greatest integer function, is equal to

  • A
    1-6ln67
  • Correct answer
    B
    1+6ln67
  • C
    1-7ln67
  • D
    1+7ln67

Solution

I=∫01dx71x=∫01171xdx

Let 17=k ⇒I=∫01k1xdx

I=∫01k1xdx

⇒I=∫121k1xdx+∫1312k1xdx+∫1413k1xdx+⋯

⇒  I=k1-12+k212-13+k313-14+⋯

⇒I=k+k22+k33+⋯-1kk22+k33+⋯

⇒I=-ln1-k-1k-ln1-k-k

⇒ I=-ln67-7-ln67-17 ∵k=17

∴I=1+6ln67

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