Evaluate : 
Let ![]()
Put x2 = t
![]()
![]()
⇒ t = A(t + 9) + B(t + 4)
⇒ t = At + 9A + Bt + 4B
⇒ t = t(A + B) + (9A + 4B)
On comparing the coefficients of t and constant terms from both sides, we get
A + B = 1 …(i)
9A + 4B = 0 …(ii)
From eq. (i), we get
A = 1 – B …(iii)
Now, putting the value of A eq. (ii), we get
9(1 – B) + 4B = 0
⇒ 9 – 9B + 4B = 0
⇒ 9 – 5B = 0
⇒ 5B = 9
![]()
So,
![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
Now, we know that,
![]()
![]()
![]()
