Question
Evaluate the following intregals:
$\int\frac{2\text{x}+1}{(\text{x}-2)(\text{x}-3)}\ \text{dx}$

Answer

Let $\frac{2\text{x}+1}{(\text{x}-2)(\text{x}-3)}=\frac{\text{A}}{(\text{x}-2)}+\frac{\text{B}}{(\text{x}-3)}$
$\Rightarrow2\text{x}+1=\text{A}(\text{x}-3)+\text{B}(\text{x}-2)$
$=(\text{A}+\text{B})\text{x}+(-3\text{A}-2\text{B})$
equating similar terms, we get
A + B = 2, and -3A - 2B = 1
Thus,
$\text{I}=-5\int\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{x}-2}+7\int\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{x}-3}$
$=-5\log|\text{x}-2|+7\log|\text{x}-3|+\text{C}$
$\text{I}=\log\Big|\frac{(\text{x}-3)^7}{(\text{x}-2)^5}\Big|+\text{C}$

An urn contains m white and n black balls. A ball is drawn at random and is put back into the urn along with k additional balls of the same colour as that of the ball drawn. A ball is again drawn at random. Show that the probability of drawing a white ball now does not depend on k.
A manufacturer considers that men and women workers are equally efficient and so he pays them at the same rate. He has 30 and 17 units of workers (male and female) and capital respectively, which he uses to produce two types of goods A and B. To produce one unit of A, 2 workers and 3 units of capital are required while 3 workers and 1 unit of capital is required to produce one unit of B. If A and B are priced at Rs. 100 and Rs. 120 per unit respectively, how should he use his resources to maximise the total revenue? Form the above as an LPP and solve graphically. Do you agree with this view of the manufacturer that men and women workers are equally efficient and so should be paid at the same rate?
Find the points of discontinuity, if any of the following function:

Using properties of determinants, prove that
$\begin{vmatrix} (x + y)^{2} & zx & zy \\ zx & (z + y)^{2} & xy \\ zy & xy & (z + x)^{2} \end{vmatrix} = 2xyz(x + y + z)^{3} $
A toy company manufactures two types of dolls, A and B. Market tests and available resources have indicated that the combined production level should not exceed 1200 dolls per week and the demand for dolls of type B is at most half of that for dolls of type A. Further, the production level of dolls of type A can exceed three times the production of dolls of other type by at most 600 units. If the company makes profit of Rs. 12 and Rs. 16 per doll respectively on dolls A and B, how many of each should be produced weekly in order to maximise the profit?
Suppose a girl throws a die. If she gets a $5$ or $6$, she tosses a coin $3$ times and notes the number of heads. If she gets $1, 2, 3$ or $4$ she tosses a coin once and notes whether a head or tail is obtained. If she obtained exactly one head, what is the probability that she threw $1, 2, 3$ or $4$ with the die?
