The expression in the image is:

\[
\frac{x + 3}{(x^2 + 4)(x + 5)}
\]

To resolve this into partial fractions, we express the given fraction as a sum of simpler fractions:

\[
\frac{x + 3}{(x^2 + 4)(x + 5)} = \frac{Ax + B}{x^2 + 4} + \frac{C}{x + 5}
\]

Here, \( \frac{Ax + B}{x^2 + 4} \) corresponds to the irreducible quadratic factor, and \( \frac{C}{x + 5} \) corresponds to the linear factor.

### Step 1: Combine the fractions on the right-hand side

To combine the fractions, we get a common denominator:

\[
\frac{Ax + B}{x^2 + 4} + \frac{C}{x + 5} = \frac{(Ax + B)(x + 5) + C(x^2 + 4)}{(x^2 + 4)(x + 5)}
\]

### Step 2: Set the numerators equal

Since the denominators are the same, we equate the numerators:

\[
x + 3 = (Ax + B)(x + 5) + C(x^2 + 4)
\]

### Step 3: Expand and collect like terms

Expanding the right-hand side:

\[
(Ax + B)(x + 5) = Ax^2 + 5Ax + Bx + 5B = Ax^2 + (5A + B)x + 5B
\]
\[
C(x^2 + 4) = Cx^2 + 4C
\]

Combining these:

\[
Ax^2 + (5A + B)x + 5B + Cx^2 + 4C = (A + C)x^2 + (5A + B)x + (5B + 4C)
\]

### Step 4: Match coefficients

We now match the coefficients of like terms from both sides of the equation:

For \( x^2 \) terms:
\[
A + C = 0
\]

For \( x \) terms:
\[
5A + B = 1
\]

For the constant term:
\[
5B + 4C = 3
\]

### Step 5: Solve the system of equations

From \( A + C = 0 \), we get:
\[
C = -A
\]

Substitute \( C = -A \) into the other equations:

For \( 5A + B = 1 \):
\[
B = 1 - 5A
\]

For \( 5B + 4C = 3 \):
\[
5(1 - 5A) + 4(-A) = 3
\]
\[
5 - 25A - 4A = 3
\]
\[
-29A = -2
\]
\[
A = \frac{2}{29}
\]

Now, substitute \( A = \frac{2}{29} \) back to find \( B \) and \( C \):

\[
B = 1 - 5\left(\frac{2}{29}\right) = 1 - \frac{10}{29} = \frac{29}{29} - \frac{10}{29} = \frac{19}{29}
\]
\[
C = -A = -\frac{2}{29}
\]

### Step 6: Write the partial fraction decomposition

Thus, the partial fraction decomposition is:

\[
\frac{x + 3}{(x^2 + 4)(x + 5)} = \frac{\frac{2}{29}x + \frac{19}{29}}{x^2 + 4} + \frac{-\frac{2}{29}}{x + 5}
\]
