Math Problem Statement
Solution
The integral provided in the image is:
To evaluate this integral, we can approach it using partial fraction decomposition, as the integrand involves a product of polynomials with distinct factors. Here are the steps to solve:
Step 1: Setup partial fraction decomposition
The expression we are trying to decompose is:
We assume the following form for the partial fraction decomposition:
Multiplying both sides of this equation by gives:
Step 2: Expand the right-hand side and collect terms
We need to expand and collect like powers of to solve for , , , and .
