Correct answer: A

  1. We need to evaluate
lim⁡x→2∑n=19xn(n+1)x2+2(2n+1)x+4.\lim_{x\to 2}\sum_{n=1}^9 \frac{x}{n(n+1)x^2+2(2n+1)x+4}.x→2lim​n=1∑9​n(n+1)x2+2(2n+1)x+4x​.
  1. Since each term is a rational function and the denominator is nonzero at x=2x=2x=2, we can substitute x=2x=2x=2 directly.

So for the nnnth term,

xn(n+1)x2+2(2n+1)x+4∣x=2=2n(n+1)(4)+2(2n+1)(2)+4.\frac{x}{n(n+1)x^2+2(2n+1)x+4}\Bigg|_{x=2} = \frac{2}{n(n+1)(4)+2(2n+1)(2)+4}.n(n+1)x2+2(2n+1)x+4x​​x=2​=n(n+1)(4)+2(2n+1)(2)+42​.
  1. Simplify the denominator:
4n(n+1)+4(2n+1)+4=4n2+4n+8n+4+4=4n2+12n+8.4n(n+1)+4(2n+1)+4 =4n^2+4n+8n+4+4 =4n^2+12n+8.4n(n+1)+4(2n+1)+4=4n2+4n+8n+4+4=4n2+12n+8.

Thus,

24n2+12n+8=24(n2+3n+2)=24(n+1)(n+2)=12(n+1)(n+2).\frac{2}{4n^2+12n+8} =\frac{2}{4(n^2+3n+2)} =\frac{2}{4(n+1)(n+2)} =\frac{1}{2(n+1)(n+2)}.4n2+12n+82​=4(n2+3n+2)2​=4(n+1)(n+2)2​=2(n+1)(n+2)1​.

Hence the limit becomes

∑n=1912(n+1)(n+2)=12∑n=191(n+1)(n+2).\sum_{n=1}^9 \frac{1}{2(n+1)(n+2)} =\frac12\sum_{n=1}^9 \frac{1}{(n+1)(n+2)}.n=1∑9​2(n+1)(n+2)1​=21​n=1∑9​(n+1)(n+2)1​.
  1. Use partial fractions:
1(n+1)(n+2)=1n+1−1n+2.\frac{1}{(n+1)(n+2)}=\frac{1}{n+1}-\frac{1}{n+2}.(n+1)(n+2)1​=n+11​−n+21​.

Therefore,

12∑n=19(1n+1−1n+2).\frac12\sum_{n=1}^9\left(\frac{1}{n+1}-\frac{1}{n+2}\right).21​n=1∑9​(n+11​−n+21​).
  1. This is a telescoping sum:
12[(12−13)+(13−14)+⋯+(110−111)].\frac12\left[\left(\frac12-\frac13\right)+\left(\frac13-\frac14\right)+\cdots+\left(\frac1{10}-\frac1{11}\right)\right].21​[(21​−31​)+(31​−41​)+⋯+(101​−111​)].

All middle terms cancel, leaving

12(12−111).\frac12\left(\frac12-\frac1{11}\right).21​(21​−111​).
  1. Compute:
12(11−222)=12⋅922=944.\frac12\left(\frac{11-2}{22}\right) =\frac12\cdot\frac9{22} =\frac9{44}.21​(2211−2​)=21​⋅229​=449​.
  1. So the correct option is
944.\boxed{\frac{9}{44}}.449​​.

This corresponds to Option A.
