If \(\int \frac{d x}{(x+1)(x+2)}=\int \frac{A}{x+1} d x+\int \frac{B}{x+2} d x\), then \(A+B=\)

  1. A 2
  2. B 1
  3. C \(0\)
  4. D -1
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( 1 = A(x+2) + B(x+1) \) Set \( x = -1 \): \( 1 = A(-1+2) \implies A=1 \) Set \( x = -2 \): \( 1 = B(-2+1) \implies B=-1 \) \( A+B = 1 + (-1) = 0 \)
