We are asked to find the value of the following definite integral: \[ \int \frac{1}{x^1} \, dx \] We are given the expression for the result in the form of a complex rational function. By solving the integral: \[ \int \frac{1}{x^1} \, dx = \frac{(x - 1)^3}{(x + 2)^5} \left[ \right]_1^4 \] This simplifies to the expression as seen in Option C.
Therefore, the correct answer is Option C.
