MCQ
$\int_{\,2}^{\,3} {\frac{{dx}}{{{x^2} - x}} = } $
  • A
    $\log (2/3)$
  • B
    $\log (1/4)$
  • $\log (4/3)$
  • D
    $\log (8/3)$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\log (4/3)$
c
(c) $I = \int_2^3 {\frac{{dx}}{{{x^2} - x}}} $$ = \int_2^3 {\frac{{dx}}{{x\,(x - 1)}}} $

$ = \int_2^3 {\left[ {\frac{1}{{x - 1}} - \frac{1}{x}} \right]} \,dx$

$ = \int_2^3 {\frac{1}{{(x - 1)}}} \,dx - \int_2^3 {\frac{1}{x}dx} $

$ = [\log (x - 1)]_2^3 - [\log x]_2^3$

$ = [\log 2 - \log 1] - [\log 3 - \log 2]$

$ = 2\log 2 - \log 3 = \log \frac{4}{3}$.
