Homework Statement



Show that the integral of (1/x)sin(1/x)dx from 0 to 1 is converges absolutely?


Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution



Should we use the comparison test in this situation?

change of variable u=1/x you will get from 1 to infinite integral of -sinu over u after that you do integration by parts and you will get your answer sinu / u is always convergent
