To find the integral of ( \log(x) , dx ), we can use integration by parts. The integration by parts formula states that:

[

\int u , dv = uv - \int v , du

]

For this integral, we can choose:

  • ( u = \log(x) ) (which means ( du = \frac{1}{x} , dx )),

  • ( dv = dx ) (which gives ( v = x )).

Applying the integration by parts formula, we have:

[

\int \log(x) , dx = x \log(x) - \int x \cdot \frac{1}{x} , dx

]

Simplifying the second integral:

[

\int x \cdot \frac{1}{x} , dx = \int 1 , dx = x

]

Now substituting this back into our equation gives:

[

\int \log(x) , dx = x \log(x) - x + C

]

Thus, the result of the integral is:

[

x \log(x) - x + C

]

This confirms that the first choice
