Partial decomposition form check

33 Views Asked by At

Write out the form of the partial fraction decomposition of the function. Do not determine the numerical value of the coefficients.

a) $f(x) = \frac{x^2+x}{x^3-3x^2+2x}$

My solution: $$=\frac{x^2+x}{x(x-2)(x-1)} = \frac{A}{x} + \frac{B}{x-2} + \frac{C}{x-1}$$

b) $f(t) = \frac{t^5+1}{t^6+t^3}$

My solution: $$=\frac{t^5+1}{t^3(t^3+1)} = \frac{At^2+Bt+C}{t^3+1} + \frac{D}{t^3}$$

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

My solution: $$=\frac{x^5+1}{x(x-1)(x^2+1)^2} = \frac{Ax+B}{x^2+1} + \frac{Cx+D}{(x^2+1)^2} + \frac{E}{x} + \frac{F}{x-1}$$

Are they correct?

In part B you need to add a factor over $t^2$ and a factor over $t$.
