i keep going in circles could someone please help me

prob
integral ln(2x+1) dx

i use u=ln dx and dv=2x+1 when i integrate it seems that i just keep going in circles
 
\(\displaystyle \int ln(2x+1)dx\)

You can not use the choices you have.

Let \(\displaystyle u=ln(2x+1), \;\ dv=dx, \;\ du=\frac{2}{2x+1}dx, \;\ v=x\)

\(\displaystyle xln(2x+1)-2\int\frac{x}{2x+1}dx\)

Now, can you finish by integrating the last one?.

Substitution would be easier, unless you have to use parts.
 
thank you
now i will try the rest on my own
i have to use intergration by parts
might have more questions later
wish me luck
