The correct answer is: -4

Given,

x+3x-122x-1dx=Ax-1+B log2x-1+C logx-1+K

Now solving x+3x-122x-1 by partial fraction we get,

x+3x-122x-1=αx-1+βx-12+γ2x-1

x+3=αx-12x-1+β2x-1+γx-12

Now comparing coefficient of x2, x & constant term we get,

α=-7, β=4 & γ=14

Now putting the value and integrating the given function we get,

x+3x-122x-1=-7x-1+4x-12+142x-1

x+3x-122x-1=-7logx-1+-4x-1+7log2x-1+K

Now comparing with x+3x-122x-1dx=Ax-1+B log2x-1+C logx-1+K

We get,

A=-7, B-4 & C=7

Then A+B+C=-4
