NCERT Class 12 Maths · Chapter 7 Integrals · Exercise 7.6 Question 19

Evaluate \(\int \left(\frac{1}{x} - \frac{1}{x^{2}}\right) e^{x}\, dx\).

💡 Concept Hints

  1. Identify the domain and the inner and outer functions, or the relevant one-sided limits.
  2. Apply the appropriate differentiation or limit rule, keep all chain factors, and check exceptional points.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: \(\frac{e^{x}}{x}\) + C.
  1. Work on each open interval where the original integrand is real and defined.
  2. Recognize eˣ[g(x)+g′(x)] with g=\(\frac{1}{x}\) and g′=\(- \frac{1}{x^{2}}\).
  3. The product rule makes its primitive eˣg(x); substitution into the original integrand verifies the match.
  4. An antiderivative is F(x)=\(\frac{e^{x}}{x}\).
  5. Differentiate this expression to check that F′(x)=\(\left(\frac{1}{x} - \frac{1}{x^{2}}\right) e^{x}\). Add an arbitrary constant C on each domain component.
