What two rational expressions sum to 3x+4/x^2-6x+5?

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

$\frac{3x+4}{x^2-6x+5}=\frac{-7}{4(x-1)} +\frac{19}{4(x-5)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given rational expression is:

$\frac{3x+4}{x^{2}-6x+5} = \frac{3x+4}{(x-1)(x-5)}$

We can use concept of Partial Fractions to solve this problem. Let,

$\frac{3x+4}{(x-1)(x-5)}=\frac{A}{x-1} +\frac{B}{x-5}$

Multiplying both sides by (x - 1)(x - 5), we get:

$3x+4=A(x-5)+B(x-1)$

Substituting x = 5, we get:

$3(5)+4=A(5-5)+B(5-1)\\\\ 15+4=0+4B\\\\ 19=4B\\\\ B=\frac{19}{4}$

Substituting x = 1, we get:

$3(1)+4=A(1-5)+B(1-1)\\\\ 7=-4A\\\\ A=-\frac{7}{4}$

Substituting the value of A and B, back in the original equation, we get:

$\frac{3x+4}{x^2-6x+5}=\frac{-7}{4(x-1)} +\frac{19}{4(x-5)}$
