Q83.A value of α such that ∫ (x+α)(x+α+1) α (1) −12 (2) 21 (3) −2 (4) 2

What This Question Tests

This problem involves solving a definite integral of a rational function using partial fraction decomposition and then equating the result to a given logarithmic expression to find the unknown parameter alpha.

Concepts Tested

Partial fractionsDefinite integrationProperties of logarithms

Formulas Used

∫(1/(x(x+1))) dx = ∫(1/x - 1/(x+1)) dx = log|x| - log|x+1| + C = log|x/(x+1)| + C

log a - log b = log (a/b)
