Problem

A student solves dydx=ln⁡x\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\ln x and writes the particular solution satisfying y(1)=2y(1)=2 in two different ways: (i) y=2+∫1xln⁡t dty=2+\displaystyle\int_{1}^{x}\ln t\, dt (ii) y=∫0xln⁡t dt+Cy=\displaystyle\int_{0}^{x}\ln t\, dt + C What value of CC makes expressions (i) and (ii) equivalent for all x>1x>1? (a) 11 (b) 33 (c) 22 (d) 00
