Graph of g(x) = −1 + (x − 1)ln(x)

Use the left and right arrow keys to trace the curve, up and down to jump between key points, and plus and minus to zoom.

Step-by-step solution

4 steps
  1. Identify the function and the equation to solve.

    The function is g(x)=−1+(x−1)ln⁡xg(x) = -1 + (x-1)\ln x, defined on ]0,+∞[]0, +\infty[.
    We need to find the solutions to the equation g(x)=0g(x) = 0.

  2. Use the provided graph of the function g(x)g(x).

    The question explicitly states "A partir de la courbe (C) de la fonction g" (From the curve (C) of the function g). This means we should use the visual information from the graph to determine the solutions.

  3. Locate the points where the curve (C) intersects the x-axis.

    The solutions to g(x)=0g(x) = 0 are the x-coordinates where the graph of g(x)g(x) crosses or touches the x-axis.
    Looking at the graph, the curve (C) intersects the x-axis at two distinct points. These points are labeled 'a' and 'b' on the x-axis.

  4. State the solutions based on the graph.

    The solutions to the equation g(x)=0g(x) = 0 are the values of xx indicated by 'a' and 'b' on the graph.

    The solutions are x=a and x=b\boxed{\mathbf{x=a \text{ and } x=b}}.
