Answer:

  \dfrac{1}{x-2}-\dfrac{x}{x^2+1}

Step-by-step explanation:

The partial fraction form will be ...

  \dfrac{2x+1}{(x-2)(x^2+1)}=\dfrac{A}{x-2}+\dfrac{Bx+C}{x^2+1}\\\\=\dfrac{A(x^2+1)+(x-2)(Bx+C)}{(x-2)(x^2+1)}\\\\\text{Equating numerators, we have ...}\\\\2x+1=(A+B)x^2+(C-2B)x+(A-2C)\\\\A=-B;\ C+2A=2;\ A-2C=1\\\\C+2(2C+1)=2\quad\text{substitute for A}\\\\5C+2=2\ \rightarrow\ C=0;\ A=1;\ B=-1\\\\\text{So the expansion is ...}\\\\\dfrac{2x+1}{(x-2)(x^2+1)}=\boxed{\dfrac{1}{x-2}-\dfrac{x}{x^2+1}}

Answer:

Partial fraction = 1/(x-2) - x/(x^2+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Question:

Express 2x+1/(x-2)(x²+1) as a partial fraction.

Note: it will be assumed that there was a typo in the interpretation of parentheses to mean

(2x+1) / ( (x-2)(x^2+1) )

Let

(2x+1) / ( (x-2)(x^2+1) ) = A/(x-2) + (Bx+C)/(x^2+1) .........................(0)

(2x+1) / ( (x-2)(x^2+1) ) = (A(x^2+1)+(Bx+C)(x-2)) / ( (x-2)(B/(x^2+1) )

(2x+1) / ( (x-2)(x^2+1) ) = (Ax^2+A+Bx^2+(C-2B)x-2C) / ( (x-2)(B/(x^2+1) )

(2x+1) / ( (x-2)(x^2+1) ) = ( (A+B)x^2+(C-2B)x+A-2C ) / ( (x-2)(B/(x^2+1) )

Match numerators

2x+1 = (A+B)x^2+(C-2B)x+A-2C

Match coefficients,

A+B = 0 ..................(1)

-2B+C = 2 .................(2)

A-2C = 1 ...................(3)

Solve for A, B and C

Substitute A from (1) in (3)

-B - 2C =1  

transpose and solve for B

B = -2C-1  ....................(4)

Substitue B from (4) in (2)

-2(-2C-1) + C = 2  

simplify

5C = 2-2 = 0

C=0  ..........................(5)

substitute (5)  in (4)

B = -2C-1 = -1  ...............(6)

Substitue (6) in (1)

A+(-1) = 0

A=1 .............................(7)

Using values from (7), (6) and (5) to substitute in (0)

we get

(2x+1) / ( (x-2)(x^2+1) ) = 1/(x-2) - x/(x^2+1)

as the required partial fraction

Answer:

7sqrt(15) - 5sqrt(6)

------------------------------

45

Step-by-step explanation:

7 -sqrt(10)

-----------------------

3 sqrt(5) *sqrt(3)

7 -sqrt(10)

-----------------------

3 sqrt(15)

Multiply the top and bottom by sqrt(15)/ sqrt(15)

7 -sqrt(10)               sqrt(15)

----------------------- * ------------

3 sqrt(15)                 sqrt(15)


(7 -sqrt(10))* sqrt(15)

-----------------------------------

3 *15

Distribute


7sqrt(15) - sqrt(150)

------------------------------

45

sqrt(ab) =sqrt(a) sqrt(b)

150 = 25*6

7sqrt(15) - sqrt(25)sqrt(6)

------------------------------

45

7sqrt(15) - 5sqrt(6)

------------------------------

Softa [21]

Answer:

35 and 55

Step-by-step explanation:

x+(2×-15)=90

3x-15=90

3x=105

x=35

other angle is 35×2-15=55
