The correct answer is: $1-\frac{3 \pi}{4}$
(C)
$\begin{aligned} \int_{0}^{1} \frac{x^{2}+1-3}{x^{2}+1} d x &=\int_{0}^{1} \frac{x^{2}+1}{x^{2}+1}-\frac{3}{x^{2}+1} d x \\ &=\int_{0}^{1} 1-\frac{3}{x^{2}+1} d x=\left[x-3 \tan ^{-1} x\right]_{0}^{1} \\ &=\left(1-3 \tan ^{-1} 1\right)-\left(0-3 \tan ^{-1} 0\right)=1-3 \frac{\pi}{4} \end{aligned}$
