0xf(t)dt=x+∫x1tf(t)dt (given);

When x=0, ∫0xf(t)dt=0, so ∫01tf(t)dt=0 (see also later);

x1tf(t)dt=∫0xf(t)dt-x;

x=∫0xdt;

x1tf(t)dt=∫0xf(t)dt-x=∫0x(f(t)-1)dt;

x1tf(t)dt=(1-x)(∫x1f(t)dt)-∫x1f(t)dt (integration by parts);

01tf(t)dt=∫01f(t)dt-∫01f(t)dt=0;

01tf(t)dt=∫01tf(t)dt+∫01(f(t)-1)dt=∫01(tf(t)+f(t)-1)dt=0 and, since  ∫01tf(t)dt=0, ∫01(f(t)-1)dt=0.

f(t)-1=0, so f(t)=1, therefore f(1)=1.
