Correct answer: D

  1. We are given
I(m,n)=∫01xm−1(1−x)n−1 dx,m,n>0.I(m,n)=\int_0^1 x^{m-1}(1-x)^{n-1}\,dx, \qquad m,n>0.I(m,n)=∫01​xm−1(1−x)n−1dx,m,n>0.

We need to find

I(9,14)+I(10,13).I(9,14)+I(10,13).I(9,14)+I(10,13).
  1. Write both integrals explicitly:
I(9,14)=∫01x8(1−x)13 dx,I(9,14)=\int_0^1 x^{8}(1-x)^{13}\,dx,I(9,14)=∫01​x8(1−x)13dx,

and

I(10,13)=∫01x9(1−x)12 dx.I(10,13)=\int_0^1 x^{9}(1-x)^{12}\,dx.I(10,13)=∫01​x9(1−x)12dx.
  1. Add them:
I(9,14)+I(10,13)=∫01[x8(1−x)13+x9(1−x)12]dx.I(9,14)+I(10,13) =\int_0^1 \left[x^8(1-x)^{13}+x^9(1-x)^{12}\right]dx.I(9,14)+I(10,13)=∫01​[x8(1−x)13+x9(1−x)12]dx.
  1. Factor the integrand:
x8(1−x)12[(1−x)+x].x^8(1-x)^{12}\big[(1-x)+x\big].x8(1−x)12[(1−x)+x].

Since

(1−x)+x=1,(1-x)+x=1,(1−x)+x=1,

we get

x8(1−x)13+x9(1−x)12=x8(1−x)12.x^8(1-x)^{13}+x^9(1-x)^{12}=x^8(1-x)^{12}.x8(1−x)13+x9(1−x)12=x8(1−x)12.

Therefore,

I(9,14)+I(10,13)=∫01x8(1−x)12 dx.I(9,14)+I(10,13)=\int_0^1 x^8(1-x)^{12}\,dx.I(9,14)+I(10,13)=∫01​x8(1−x)12dx.
  1. Compare with the definition of I(m,n)I(m,n)I(m,n):
I(m,n)=∫01xm−1(1−x)n−1 dx.I(m,n)=\int_0^1 x^{m-1}(1-x)^{n-1}\,dx.I(m,n)=∫01​xm−1(1−x)n−1dx.

Here,

m−1=8⇒m=9,n−1=12⇒n=13.m-1=8 \Rightarrow m=9, \qquad n-1=12 \Rightarrow n=13.m−1=8⇒m=9,n−1=12⇒n=13.

So,

I(9,14)+I(10,13)=I(9,13).I(9,14)+I(10,13)=I(9,13).I(9,14)+I(10,13)=I(9,13).
  1. Check options:
  • A: I(9,1)I(9,1)I(9,1) — incorrect
  • B: I(1,13)I(1,13)I(1,13) — incorrect
  • C: I(19,27)I(19,27)I(19,27) — incorrect
  • D: I(9,13)I(9,13)I(9,13) — correct

Hence the correct answer is

I(9,13).\boxed{I(9,13)}.I(9,13)​.
