Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{5}{3}+\frac{8}{9}\left(4^5-1\right)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} & \text { Let } \frac{2 x+1}{(1+x)(1-2 x)} \\ & =\frac{A}{1+x}+\frac{B}{1-2 x}=\frac{A(1-2 x)+B(1+x)}{(1+x)(1-2 x)} \\ & \Rightarrow 2 x+1=A(1-2 x)+B(1+x)\end{aligned}\) On comparing both sides, we get…
