Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

Integrate by parts with u=log⁡exu = \log_e x, dv=x dxdv = x\,dx:

∫xlog⁡ex dx=x22log⁡ex−x24\int x\log_e x\,dx = \dfrac{x^2}{2}\log_e x - \dfrac{x^2}{4}.

Evaluating from 11 to ee: (e22−e24)−(0−14)=e2+14\left(\dfrac{e^2}{2}-\dfrac{e^2}{4}\right) - \left(0-\dfrac{1}{4}\right) = \dfrac{e^2+1}{4}.
