JEE Main 2024 — 27 January, Shift 1 — Question 9

If ∫0113+x+1+xdx=a+b2+c3\int_{0}^{1} \frac{1}{\sqrt{3+x}+\sqrt{1+x}} d x=a+b \sqrt{2}+c \sqrt{3}, where a,b,ca, b, c are rational numbers, then 2a+3b−4c2 a+3 b-4 c is equal to :

  1. Option A:

    4

  2. Option B:

    10

  3. Option C:

    7

  4. Option D:

    8

    Correct

Answer: D

Step-by-step solution

∫0113+x+1+xdx=∫013+x−1+x(3+x)−(1+x)dx\int_{0}^{1} \frac{1}{\sqrt{3+x}+\sqrt{1+x}} d x=\int_{0}^{1} \frac{\sqrt{3+x}-\sqrt{1+x}}{(3+x)-(1+x)} d x

12[∫013+xdx−∫01(1+x)dx]\frac{1}{2}\left[\int_{0}^{1} \sqrt{3+x} d x-\int_{0}^{1}(\sqrt{1+x}) \mathrm{dx}\right]

12[2(3+x)323−2(1+x)323]01\frac{1}{2}\left[2 \frac{(3+x)^{\frac{3}{2}}}{3}-\frac{2(1+x)^{\frac{3}{2}}}{3}\right]_{0}^{1}

12[23(8−33)−23(232−1)]\frac{1}{2}\left[\frac{2}{3}(8-3 \sqrt{3})-\frac{2}{3}\left(2^{\frac{3}{2}}-1\right)\right]

13[8−33−22+1]\frac{1}{3}[8-3 \sqrt{3}-2 \sqrt{2}+1]

=3−3−232=a+b2+c3=3-\sqrt{3}-\frac{2}{3} \sqrt{2}=a+b \sqrt{2}+c \sqrt{3}

a=3,b=−23,c=−1a=3, b=-\frac{2}{3}, c=-1

2a+3b−4c=6−2+4=82 a+3 b-4 c=6-2+4=8
