Question
Integrate the function $\sqrt{x^{2}+4 x-5}$

Answer

$I=\sqrt{x^{2}+4 x-5} d x$ 
= $\int \sqrt{\left(x^{2}+4 x+4\right)-9} d x$ 
= $\int \sqrt{(x+2)^{2}-(3)^{2}} d x$ 
We know that,
$\Rightarrow \int \sqrt{x^{2}-a^{2}} d x=\frac{x}{2} \sqrt{x^{2}-a^{2}}-\frac{a^{2}}{2} \log |x+\sqrt{x^{2}-a^{2}}|+C$ 
$\Rightarrow \mathrm{I}=\frac{(\mathrm{x}+2)}{2} \sqrt{\mathrm{x}^{2}+4 \mathrm{x}-5}-\frac{9}{2} \log |(\mathrm{x}+2)+\sqrt{\mathrm{x}^{2}+4 \mathrm{x}-5}|+\mathrm{C}$

Of the students in a college, it is known that $60\%$ reside in a hostel and $40\%$ do not reside in hostel. Previous year results report that $30\%$ of students residing in hostel attain A grade and $20\%$ of ones not residing in hostel attain A grade in their annual examination. At the end of the year, one students is chosen at random from the college and he has an A grade. What is the probability that the selected student is a hosteler?
