calculus - Integration by parts: integrating both sides



Integration by parts is defined by the formula udv=uvvdu. Let's says udv=lnxdx. When determining what v equals, I learned that this requires integrating both sides of dv=1dx.
dv=1dx
v+C=x+K
Are the constants C and K going to be equal to each other or different? v+C=x+K doesn't even seem to carry any meaning because one antiderivative is in terms of v while the other is in terms of x. My biggest confusion is integrating both sides of an equation with respect to different variables. It doesn't make sense to me.


Answer



v=x+(KC)

Both K and C are real arbitarry constants so KC also must be a real constant.



Secondly, The equation you got just a relationship between x and v



For example, v=x+10



differentiate both sides you get dvdx=1



dv=1dx
