Question Number 3017 by Filup last updated on 03/Dec/15

A=∫_μ ^( μ+ε)  (dx/(x+n))    A=ln(x+n) ∣_μ ^(μ+ε)   =ln(μ+ε+n)−ln(μ+n)  =ln(((μ+ε+n)/(μ+n)))  =ln(((μ+n)/(μ+n))+(ε/(μ+n)))    ∴A=∫_μ ^( μ+ε)  (dx/(x+n))=ln((ε/(μ+n))+1)    For  (a/b)=c  i) if  a>b, c>1  ii) if   a<b, c<1  iii) if  a=b, c=1    Case (i)  ε>μ+n  (ε/(μ+n))>1  ∴A>ln(2)    Case (ii)  ε<μ+n  (ε/(μ+n))<1  ∴A<ln(2)    Case (iii)  ε=μ+n  (ε/(μ+n))=1  A=ln(2)    What other observations can you find  regarding similar logarithmic functions?

Maybe look at cases of ∫_μ ^( με) , ∫_μ ^( μ^ε ) , etc.

$$\mathrm{Maybe}\:\mathrm{look}\:\mathrm{at}\:\mathrm{cases}\:\mathrm{of}\:\int_{\mu} ^{\:\mu\epsilon} ,\:\int_{\mu} ^{\:\mu^{\epsilon} } ,\:{etc}. \\ $$

μ>−n∨μ+ε<−n

$$\mu>−{n}\vee\mu+\epsilon<−{n} \\ $$

∫_μ ^(με)  (dx/(x+n))=ln(((με+n)/(μ+n)))  =ln(((ε+(n/μ))/(1+(n/μ))))    k=(n/μ)  A=ln(((ε+k)/(1+k)))    Similar to original post:  ε>1, A>0  ε<1, A<0  ε=1, A=0

$$\int_{\mu} ^{\mu\epsilon} \:\frac{{dx}}{{x}+{n}}=\mathrm{ln}\left(\frac{\mu\epsilon+{n}}{\mu+{n}}\right) \\ $$ $$=\mathrm{ln}\left(\frac{\epsilon+\frac{{n}}{\mu}}{\mathrm{1}+\frac{{n}}{\mu}}\right) \\ $$ $$ \\ $$ $${k}=\frac{{n}}{\mu} \\ $$ $${A}=\mathrm{ln}\left(\frac{\epsilon+{k}}{\mathrm{1}+{k}}\right) \\ $$ $$ \\ $$ $$\mathrm{Similar}\:\mathrm{to}\:\mathrm{original}\:\mathrm{post}: \\ $$ $$\epsilon>\mathrm{1},\:{A}>\mathrm{0} \\ $$ $$\epsilon<\mathrm{1},\:{A}<\mathrm{0} \\ $$ $$\epsilon=\mathrm{1},\:{A}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$ $$ \\ $$
