If f ( x ) is a function defined for all positive real numbers such that x f ( x ) = x + ∫ 1 x f ( t ) d t , what is k = 1 ∑ 1 0 f ( e k ) ?

at x=1 f(1)=1 by applying d x d on both side (we have to apply labnize) f ( x ) + x × f ∣ ( x ) = 1 + f ( x ) = f ∣ ( x ) = x 1 by integrating we get = f ( x ) = l o g ( x ) + c by applying f(1)=1 we get c=1 therefore f(x)=log(x)+1 ∑ k = 1 1 0 f ( e k = ∑ k = 1 1 0 k + ∑ k = 1 1 0 1 = 55+10 =65

⟹ ⟹ ⟹ ⟹ ⟹ ⟹ x f ( x ) = x + ∫ 1 x f ( t ) d t x f ′ ( x ) + f ( x ) = 1 + f ( x ) f ′ ( x ) = x 1 f ( x ) = ln x + C f ( x ) = ln x + 1 f ( e k ) = k + 1 k = 1 ∑ 1 0 f ( e k ) = k = 1 ∑ 1 0 ( k + 1 ) = 2 1 0 × 1 1 + 1 0 = 6 5 Differentiating both sides wrt x Putting x = 1 in the original equation we get f ( 1 ) = 1 hence C=1
