Assertion (A) $ \int_2^e\left(\frac{1}{\log _e x}-\frac{1}{\left(\log _e x\right)^2}\right) d x=e-2 \log _2…

Assertion (A) $ \int_2^e\left(\frac{1}{\log _e x}-\frac{1}{\left(\log _e x\right)^2}\right) d x=e-2 \log _2 e $ Reason (R) $ \int_a^b e^x\left(f(x)+f^{\prime}(x)\right) d x=e^b f(b)-e^a f(a) $
  1. A and $R$ are true, $R$ is the correct explanation to $A$.
  2. $A$ and $R$ are false, $R$ is not the correct explanation to $\mathrm{A}$.
  3. $A$ is true and $R$ is false, $R$ is not the correct explanation to $\mathrm{A}$.
  4. $\mathrm{A}$ is false and $\mathrm{R}$ is true, $\mathrm{R}$ is not the correct explanation to $\mathrm{A}$.

Solution

Assertion Let $I=\int_2^e\left(\frac{1}{\log _e x}-\frac{1}{\left(\log _e x\right)^2}\right) d x$ Let $\log _e x=y$ $ \begin{aligned} \Rightarrow \quad x & =e^y \\ \Rightarrow \quad d x & =e^y d y \\ I & =\int_{\log _e 2}^1 e^y\left[\frac{1}{y}+\left(\frac{-1}{y^2}\right)\right] d y \end{aligned} $ [Using the formula $\int_a^b e^x\left[f(x)+f^{\prime}(x)\right] d x=\left[e^x f(x)\right]_a^b$ ] $ \begin{aligned} I & =\left[e^y \frac{1}{y}\right]_{-\log e^2}^1 \\ & =e-\frac{2}{\log _e 2}=e-2 \log _2 e \end{aligned} $ Hence, Assertion and Reason both are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion
