  4. D \(-\frac{2 x}{5}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(-\frac{4}{15}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} & \text {Let } I=\int \frac{x}{\sqrt{x+1}+\sqrt{x-1}} d x \\ & =\int \frac{x[\sqrt{x+1}-\sqrt{x-1}]}{x+1-x+1} d x \\ & =\frac{1}{2} \int x \sqrt{x+1} d x-\frac{1}{2} \int x \sqrt{x-1} d x=\frac{1}{2} I_1-\frac{1}{2} I_2 \end{aligned}\) Now,…
