There's a nice trick here you can do, treat the equation as 1*ln(x) then intergrate by parts.

Differentiating ln(x) gives 1/x, while intergrating 1 gives x

So your left with...

First off, an explicit definition needs to be understood. An explicit definition is the standard form in which many equations are found:

y = f(x)        (1)

for example:  y=...

Pythagoras was a Greek philosopher who discovered that in a right angled triangle (triangle with one angle 90 degrees) the hypotenuse squared , c², ...

Here is a genuine probability question I once tackled:

“In your sock drawer there are 6 blue socks, 2 red socks and 2 white socks, distributed so that the probability of ...

Often, it can seem daunting when you are asked to differentiate a function that looks particularly messy. However, it's really quite simple if you break it down in easy to manage steps....
