Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(2 \log 2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(I=\int_{-1}^1 \frac{x^3+|x|+1}{x^2+2|x|+1} d x\) Applying King's property \(\mathrm{I}=\int_{-1}^1 \frac{-\mathrm{x}^3+|\mathrm{x}|+1}{\mathrm{x}^2+2|\mathrm{x}|+1} \mathrm{dx}\) Applying \(I=\int_{-1}^1 \frac{|x|+1}{x^2+2|x|+1} d x\) being even function…
