Write log⁡(3x)=log⁡3+log⁡x\log(3x)=\log3+\log x and log⁡(9x)=log⁡9+log⁡x=2log⁡3+log⁡x\log(9x)=\log9+\log x=2\log3+\log x. Let u=log⁡xu=\log x, so du=dx/xdu=dx/x. The integral becomes ∫log⁡3+u2log⁡3+u du\int \frac{\log3+u}{2\log3+u}\,du. Write the numerator as (2log⁡3+u)−log⁡3(2\log3+u)-\log3: log⁡3+u2log⁡3+u=1−log⁡32log⁡3+u\frac{\log3+u}{2\log3+u}=1-\frac{\log3}{2\log3+u}. Integrating: ∫[1−log⁡32log⁡3+u]du=u−log⁡3⋅log⁡(2log⁡3+u)+c\int\left[1-\frac{\log3}{2\log3+u}\right]du=u-\log3\cdot\log(2\log3+u)+c. Substituting back u=log⁡xu=\log x and 2log⁡3+log⁡x=log⁡(9x)2\log3+\log x=\log(9x): =log⁡x−(log⁡3)log⁡(log⁡9x)+c=\log x-(\log3)\log(\log 9x)+c.

✓Final answer

Option (B): log⁡(x)−(log⁡3)log⁡(log⁡9x)+c\log(x)-(\log 3)\log(\log 9x)+c
