Answer

\( \boxed{F(1) \approx 2.303} \)

Steps

Step 1 :Let \( u = x^2 + 4x + 5 \). Then \( du = (2x + 4)dx \).

Step 2 :\( F(x) = \int \frac{2x + 4}{x^2 + 4x + 5} dx = \int \frac{1}{u} du \).

Step 3 :\( F(x) = \ln|u| + C = \ln|x^2 + 4x + 5| + C \).

Step 4 :Using the initial condition \( F(0) = \ln 5 \), we find that \( C = 0 \).

Step 5 :Thus, \( F(x) = \ln|x^2 + 4x + 5| \).

Step 6 :Evaluating at \( x = 1 \), \( F(1) = \ln|1^2 + 4 \cdot 1 + 5| = \ln 10 \).

Step 7 :Using a calculator to find the decimal form of \( \ln 10 \), we get \( F(1) \approx 2.303 \).

Step 8 :\( \boxed{F(1) \approx 2.303} \)
