i'm not sure if it's B or C

E

\(x^2+4\) is an irreducible quadratic, so you need a linear factor on the numerator. and \(x^2-1\) factors out more to \((x-1)(x+1)\) It's a difference of squares.

OpenStudy (kirbykirby):

and \((x+7)^2\) is a repeated irreducible linear factor, so you need to include both \[\frac{A}{x+7}\text{and } \frac{B}{(x+7)^2} \text{terms} \]

Thank you! That makes much more sense to me now.
