The value of the integral ∫ex(1x−1x2)dx\int e^x \left(\frac{1}{x} - \frac{1}{x^2}\right) dx is :

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Using the standard result ∫ex[f(x)+f′(x)]dx=exf(x)+c\int e^x [f(x) + f'(x)] dx = e^x f(x) + c.

Let f(x)=1xf(x) = \frac{1}{x}, so f′(x)=−1x2f'(x) = -\frac{1}{x^2}.

Then ∫ex(1x−1x2)dx=ex⋅1x+c=exx+c\int e^x \left(\frac{1}{x} - \frac{1}{x^2}\right) dx = e^x \cdot \frac{1}{x} + c = \frac{e^x}{x} + c.
