(C) We know that $1+x+x^2 = \frac{1-x^3}{1-x}$.Thus,$\log(1+x+x^2) = \log(1-x^3) - \log(1-x)$.Using the expansion $\log(1-u) = -(u + \frac{u^2}{2} + \

(C) We know that $1+x+x^2 = \frac{1-x^3}{1-x}$.Thus,$\log(1+x+x^2) = \log(1-x^3) - \log(1-x)$.Using the expansion $\log(1-u) = -(u + \frac{u^2}{2} + \frac{u^3}{3} + \dots)$,we get:$\log(1-x^3) = -(x^3 + \frac{x^6}{2} + \dots)$$-\log(1-x) = x + \frac{x^2}{2} + \frac{x^3}{3} + \dots$Adding these,the expansion is $x + \frac{x^2}{2} + (\frac{1}{3} - 1)x^3 + \dots$The coefficient of $x^3$ is $\frac{1}{3} - 1 = -\frac{2}{3}$.
