Help Plsssss :3

OpenStudy (itz_sid):

\[\int\limits \frac{ x^2+1 }{ (x-10)(x-9)^2 }\] \[\left( \frac{ A }{ (x-10) }+\frac{ B }{ (x-9) } + \frac{ C }{ (x-9)^2 }\right) (x-10)(x-9)^2\] \[A(x-9)^2+B(x-10)(x-9)+C(x-10)\] \[x=9 \rightarrow C=-82\] \[x=10 \rightarrow A=101\] How would I find B?

OpenStudy (loser66):

where is your RHS?

OpenStudy (loser66):

the third line should be \[A(x-9)^2+B(x-10)(x-9)+C(x-10)=x^2+1\]

OpenStudy (loser66):

From it, if x=9, you have -C = 81+1=82, so C =-82. Good for you.

OpenStudy (loser66):

if x=10, you have A= 101 good also

OpenStudy (thewafflebro):

hmmmmmmmm

OpenStudy (loser66):

Now, just give x an arbitrary number. I pick x =0, replace all A, C in

OpenStudy (loser66):

\[A(x-9)^2+B(x-10)(x-9)+C(x-10)=x^2+1\\101(0-9)^2+B(0-10)(x-9)+(-82)(0-10) =0^2+1\]

OpenStudy (loser66):

oh, forgot replace x=0 after B but you got the idea. Now, solve for B. dat sit

OpenStudy (loser66):

\[101(0-9)^2+B(0-10)(0-9)+(-82)(0-10)=1\]

what?
