The correct answer is: 12mx4mx2m+xm+12

x5m-1+2x4m-1x2m+xm+13dx=fx+c

x5m-1+2x4m-1x6m1+x-m+x-2m3dx=fx+c

x-m-1+2x-2m-11+x-m+x-2m3dx=fx+c.

If, 1+x-m+x-2m=t

-mx-m-1+2x-2m-1dx=dt

-dtmt3=fx+c

-1mt-3dt=fx+c

Using xndx=xn+1n+1+C, n-1

-1mt-2-2=fx+c

12m1+x-m+x-2m2+c=fx+c

12m1+1xm+1x2m2+c=fx+c

12mx4mx2m+xm+12=fx.
