MCQ
$\int \frac{x d x}{(x-1)(x-2)}$ equals
- A$\log \left|\frac{(x-1)^{2}}{x-2}\right|+C$
- B$\log |(x-1)(x-2)|+C$
- C$\log \left| {{{\left( {\frac{{x - 1}}{{x - 2}}} \right)}^2}} \right| + C$
- ✓$\log \left|\frac{(x-2)^{2}}{x-1}\right|+C$
$x=A(x-2)+B(x-1)$ .........$(1)$
Equating the coefficients of $x$ and constant, we obtain
$A+B=1$ and $-2 A-B=0$
$A=-1$ and $B=2$
$\therefore \frac{x}{(x-1)(x-2)}=-\frac{1}{(x-1)}+\frac{2}{(x-2)}$
$\Rightarrow \int \frac{x}{(x-1)(x-2)} d x=\int\left\{\frac{-1}{(x-1)}+\frac{2}{(x-2)}\right\} d x$
$=-\log |x-1|+2 \log |x-2|+C$
$=\log \left|\frac{(x-2)^{2}}{x-1}\right|+C$
Hence, the correct Answer is $D$.

$A=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}\beta & 0 & 1 \\ 2 & 1 & -2 \\ 3 & 1 & -2\end{array}\right)$
If $A^7-(\beta-1) A^6-\beta A^5$ is a singular matrix, then the value of $9 \beta$ is
