To calculate: Partial fraction decomposition of the rational function.
Answer to Problem 36E
Partial fraction decomposition of the rational function is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Calculation:
It is given that,
Factor the denominator,
The form of the partial fraction decomposition is,
Right hand side as a single fraction,
Denominator are equal, so one need equality of the numerator:
Now just expand right hand side
Collect up all the like terms,
The coefficients near the like terms should be equal, so the following system is obtained:
After solving this one can get the,
