Correct answer: A

  1. Write the integral clearly

We need to evaluate

I=∫e2e41x(e((ln⁡x)2+1)−1e((ln⁡x)2+1)−1+e((6−ln⁡x)2+1)−1)dx.I=\int_{e^2}^{e^4} \frac{1}{x}\left(\frac{e^{\left((\ln x)^2+1\right)^{-1}}}{e^{\left((\ln x)^2+1\right)^{-1}}+e^{\left((6-\ln x)^2+1\right)^{-1}}}\right)dx.I=∫e2e4​x1​(e((lnx)2+1)−1+e((6−lnx)2+1)−1e((lnx)2+1)−1​)dx.
  1. Substitute t=ln⁡xt=\ln xt=lnx

Since

t=ln⁡x⇒dt=dxx,t=\ln x \quad\Rightarrow\quad dt=\frac{dx}{x},t=lnx⇒dt=xdx​,

and the limits change as:

x=e2⇒t=2,x=e4⇒t=4.x=e^2 \Rightarrow t=2, \qquad x=e^4 \Rightarrow t=4.x=e2⇒t=2,x=e4⇒t=4.

So the integral becomes

I=∫24e1t2+1e1t2+1+e1(6−t)2+1 dt.I=\int_2^4 \frac{e^{\frac{1}{t^2+1}}}{e^{\frac{1}{t^2+1}}+e^{\frac{1}{(6-t)^2+1}}}\,dt.I=∫24​et2+11​+e(6−t)2+11​et2+11​​dt.
  1. Observe the symmetry

Define

f(t)=e1t2+1e1t2+1+e1(6−t)2+1.f(t)=\frac{e^{\frac{1}{t^2+1}}}{e^{\frac{1}{t^2+1}}+e^{\frac{1}{(6-t)^2+1}}}.f(t)=et2+11​+e(6−t)2+11​et2+11​​.

Now compute f(6−t)f(6-t)f(6−t):

f(6−t)=e1(6−t)2+1e1(6−t)2+1+e1t2+1.f(6-t)=\frac{e^{\frac{1}{(6-t)^2+1}}}{e^{\frac{1}{(6-t)^2+1}}+e^{\frac{1}{t^2+1}}}.f(6−t)=e(6−t)2+11​+et2+11​e(6−t)2+11​​.

Thus,

f(t)+f(6−t)=1.f(t)+f(6-t)=1.f(t)+f(6−t)=1.

Also, the interval [2,4][2,4][2,4] is symmetric about t=3t=3t=3, and under the transformation u=6−tu=6-tu=6−t, the interval [2,4][2,4][2,4] maps onto itself.

Therefore,

∫24f(t) dt=∫24f(6−t) dt.\int_2^4 f(t)\,dt = \int_2^4 f(6-t)\,dt.∫24​f(t)dt=∫24​f(6−t)dt.

Adding these,

2I=∫24(f(t)+f(6−t)) dt=∫241 dt=4−2=2.2I=\int_2^4 \big(f(t)+f(6-t)\big)\,dt=\int_2^4 1\,dt=4-2=2.2I=∫24​(f(t)+f(6−t))dt=∫24​1dt=4−2=2.

Hence,

I=1.I=1.I=1.
  1. Check options
  • A: 111 ✅
  • B: ln⁡2\ln 2ln2 ❌
  • C: e2e^2e2 ❌
  • D: 222 ❌

So the correct option is A.
