Homework Statement


Integrate [tex]\int{\frac{lnx}{x^4}dx}[/tex]


Homework Equations



The Attempt at a Solution



I get this:
[tex]u = ln x, du = \frac{1}{x}[/tex]
[tex]dv=x^4, v=\frac{x^5}{5}dx[/tex]
[tex]\frac{(lnx)x^5}{5}-\int{\frac{x^5}{5}*\frac{1}{x}dx} = \frac{(lnx)x^5}{5}-\frac{6x^6}{5}dx}[/tex]


Am I doing this right?
