The curve C has the parametric equations
x=ln(t+2)y=1t+1t>−1 x = \ln(t+2) \quad y = \frac{1}{t+1} \quad t > -1 x=ln(t+2)y=t+11t>−1The finite region R between the curve C and the x x\,x axis is bounded by the lines with equations x=ln2x = \ln 2x=ln2 and x=lnkx = \ln kx=lnk, where k>2k>2k>2.
Show that the area of R is given by the integral ∫0k−21(t+1)(t+2) dt\displaystyle \int_0^{k-2} \frac{1}{(t+1)(t+2)}\,dt∫0k−2(t+1)(t+2)1dt
Given that the area of R is ln32\displaystyle \ln\frac{3}{2}ln23, hence find the equation of the line x=lnkx=\ln kx=lnk
