Sean and his cousin are playing a game where they pick up colored sticks. Sean currently has 50 points and likes to pick up the

white sticks, earning 2 points every turn. His cousin just lost all her points on the previous turn, and has a strategy to catch up by getting all the purple ones, earning 12 points per turn. In a certain number of turns, the score will be tied. How long will that take?

With some simple rearrangement, we can rewrite the numerator as

2x^3 - 3x^2 - x + 4 = 2(x^3 - x) - 3x^2 + x + 4 \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = 2x(x^2-1) - 3(x^2 - 1) + x + 1 \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = (2x-3)(x^2-1) + x+1

Then factorizing the difference of squares, x^2-1=(x-1)(x+1), we end up with

\dfrac{2x^3 - 3x^2 - x + 4}{x^2 - 1} = \dfrac{(2x-3)(x-1)(x+1) + x+1}{(x-1)(x+1)} \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = \boxed{2x-3 + \dfrac1{x-1}}
