Intergral of (5x^(2) + 20x + 6)/x(x+1)^(2) = integral of (A/(x+1)^(2)) + (B/(x+1)) + (c/x) so I have A(x+1)x + B(x+1)^(2) + C(x+1)^(2)x + C(x+1)^(2)(x+1)/x(x+1)^(2) The Roots being x = -1, 0 So Far I have solved for 6 = C How do I solve for A and B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ugh I made a mistake

OpenStudy (anonymous):

NVm the statement is (Ax + B(x+1)x + C(x+1)^(2))/(x+1)^(2)x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok I figured it out now :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I just had the initital statement wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

( 5x²+ 20x + 6) /x (x+1)² Yep, incorrect common denom.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C = 6 A = 9 31 = 9 + B(2) + 6(2)^(2) -2 = 2B B = -1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeehh, that's what I got :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thus the intergral can be split Integral of (6/(x+1)^(2)) + Integral of (-1/(x+1)) + integral of (9/x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Just in different order A = 6, B = -1, C = 9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now I can just use substitution to solve really easily

OpenStudy (anonymous):

= 6 ln |x| - ln | x + 1| - 9 / ( x + 1) + C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yup got the same

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks for the help :)
