Math Problem Statement
Resolve in partial fraction
Solution
The expression in the image is:
We want to resolve this expression into partial fractions. Given that the denominator consists of two irreducible quadratic factors, the partial fraction decomposition will have the form:
Step 1: Combine the fractions on the right-hand side
To combine the fractions, get a common denominator:
Step 2: Set the numerators equal
Since the denominators are the same, equate the numerators:
Step 3: Expand and collect like terms
Expanding the right-hand side:
Combining these:
Step 4: Match coefficients
Now, match the coefficients of corresponding powers of :
For terms:
For terms:
For terms:
For the constant term:
Step 5: Solve the system of equations
From , we have:
Substituting into , we get:
Since , .
Now, using and :
Substitute into :
Then, using :
Step 6: Write the partial fraction decomposition
The partial fraction decomposition is:
