    \[\int_{3}^{8}{\frac{2-3x}{x\sqrt{(1+x)}}\text{ }}dx\]is equal to                                  [Pb. CET 2001]

    A)                 \[2\log \,\left( 3/2{{e}^{3}} \right)\]       

    B)                 \[\log (3/{{e}^{3}})\]

    C)                 \[4\log (3/{{e}^{3}})\]   

    D)                 None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

               We have \[\int_{3}^{8}{\frac{2-3x}{x\sqrt{1+x}}dx=I}\]                    Put \[1+x={{t}^{2}}\Rightarrow dx=2t\,dt\]                    When \[x=3\to 8,\] then \[t=2\to 3\]                    \ \[I=2\int_{2}^{3}{\frac{5-3{{t}^{2}}}{{{t}^{2}}-1}dt}\]; \[I=2\int_{2}^{3}{\left( \frac{2}{{{t}^{2}}-1}-3 \right)}\,dt\]                                    \[I=2\left[ \frac{2}{2.1}\log \frac{t-1}{t+1}-3t \right]_{2}^{3}\];\[I=2\log \left( \frac{3}{2{{e}^{3}}} \right)\].
