Question
Evaluate the following integrals:
$\int\cos(\log\text{x})\text{dx}$

Answer

Let $\text{I}=\int\cos(\log\text{x})\text{dx}$
Let $\log\text{x}=\text{t}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\text{e}^\text{t}$
$\Rightarrow\text{dx}=\text{e}^\text{t}\text{dt}$
$\text{I}=\int\text{e}^\text{t}\cos\text{(t)dt}$
Considering cos (t) as first function and $e^t$ as second function
$\text{I}=\cos\text{t}\text{e}^\text{t}-\int(-\sin\text{t})\text{e}^\text{t}\text{dt}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\cos\text{t}\text{e}^\text{t}+\int\sin\text{t}\text{e}^\text{t}\text{dt}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\cos\text{te}^\text{t}+\text{I}_1\ \dots(1)$
where $\text{I}_1=\int\text{e}^\text{t}\sin\text{t dt}$
$\text{I}_1=\int\text{e}^\text{t}\sin\text{t dt}$
Considering sin t as first function and $e^t$ as second function
$\text{I}_1=\sin\text{te}^\text{t}-\int\cos\text{te}^\text{t}\text{dt}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}_1=\sin\text{te}^\text{t}-\text{I}\ \dots(2)$
From (1) & (2)
$\text{I}=\cos\text{te}^\text{t}+\sin\text{te}^\text{t}-\text{I}$
$\Rightarrow2\text{I}=\text{e}^\text{t}(\sin\text{t}+\cos\text{t})$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\frac{\text{e}^\text{t}(\sin\text{t}+\cos\text{t})}{2}+\text{C}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\frac{\text{e}^{\log\text{x}}\big[\sin(\log\text{x})+\cos(\log\text{x})\big]}{2}+\text{C}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\frac{\text{x}}{2}\big[\sin(\log\text{x})+\cos(\log\text{x})\big]+\text{C}$

There are two types of fertilisers 'A' and 'B'. 'A' consists of 12 % nitrogen and 5 % phosphoric acid whereas 'B' consists of 4 % nitrogen and 5 % phosphoric acid. After testing the soil conditions, farmer finds that he needs at least 12 kg of nitrogen and 12 kg of phosphoric acid for his crops. If 'A' costs 10 per kg and 'B' cost 8 per kg, then graphically determine how much of each type of fertiliser should be used so that nutrient requirements are met at a minimum cost.
