Fortunately this one isn't terribly difficult to factor.

Answer 3

Are you sure you typed the denominator in correctly? Hoping not for ease sake

yeah thats what it says on the worksheet

Answer 5

lol. I take it back. It isn't nice to factor, but oh well. Sometimes we can't always have nice things.

Answer 6

Is this your first intro to partial fractions? If so the worksheet may contain a typo. For example if it was (x^2+2x+1) that can easily be factored to ((x+1)(x+1)). Thus, making the partial fraction easier to do
