Question
Evaluate the following integrals:
$\int\limits^1_0\log\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}-1\Big)\text{dx}$

Answer

Let $\text{I}=\int\limits^1_0\log\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}-1\Big)\text{dx}\ ....(\text{i})$
$=\int\limits^1_0\log\Big(\frac{1}{1-\text{x}}-1\Big)\text{dx}$ $\Big[\text{Using},\int\limits^{\text{a}}_0\text{f(x)}\text{dx}=\int\limits^{\text{a}}_0\text{f}(\text{a}-\text{x})\text{dx}\Big]$
$\text{I}=\int\limits^1_0\log\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{x}-1}\Big)\text{dx}\ ....(\text{ii})$
Adding (i) and (ii)
$2\text{I}=\int\limits^1_0\log\Big(\frac{1-\text{x}}{\text{x}}\Big)\log\Big(\frac{1-\text{x}}{\text{x}}\Big)\text{dx}$
$=\int\limits^1_0\log\Big(\frac{1-\text{x}}{\text{x}}\times\frac{\text{x}}{1-\text{x}}\Big)\text{dx}$
$=\int\limits^1_0\log1\text{ dx}$
$=0$
Hence, $\text{I}=0$

The prices of three commodities $P, Q$ and $R$ are Rs. $x, y$ and $z$ per unit respectively. A purchases $4$ units of $R$ and sells $3$ units of $P$ and $5$ units of $Q$. $B$ purchases $3$ units of $Q$ and sells $2$ units of $P$ and $1$ unit of $R$. $C$ purchases $1$ unit of $P$ and sells $4$ units of $Q$ and $6$ units of $R$. In the process $A, B$ and $C$ earn $Rs. 6000 , Rs. 5000$ and Rs. $13000$ respectively. If selling the units is positive earning and buying the units is negative earnings, find the price per unit of three commodities by using matrix method.
