Let f(x)=xln(x)-x. Find f'(x). Hence or otherwise, evaluate the integral of ln(x^3) between 1 and e.

We use the product rule with u=x and v=ln(x) (so u'=1 andv'=1/x) to differentiate xln(x) to ln(x)+1, and -x just differentiates to -1, hence we have. f'(x)=ln(x). Now note that ln(x^3)=3ln(x) using propertie...
