Help Pleeeeease :3
\[\int\limits \frac{ 5x^2-20x+45 }{ (2x+1)(x-2)^2 }\] Solve by expanding... So i got this far \[\left( \frac{ A }{ (2x+1)} + \frac{ B }{ (x-2) } +\frac{ C }{ (x-2)^2 } \right) \times (2x+1)(x-2)^2\] \[A(x-2)^2+B(2x+1)(x-2)+C(2x+1)\] \[x=2 \rightarrow 5C = 25\rightarrow C=5\] \[x=-\frac{ 1 }{ 2 } \rightarrow -\frac{ 5 }{ 2 }A=\frac{ 125 }{ 4 }+50+45 \rightarrow A=-\frac{ 101 }{ 2 }\] I feel like messed up somewhere. Can someone check my work to see if I did everything correctly so far?
C=5 looks correct. Hmm my A turned out differently. Oh oh, you forgot to square the -5/2.
Oh right! Now i got 101/5
Hm.... i got \[-\frac{ 5 }{ x-2 }+\frac{ 101 }{ 5 }\ln \left| 2x+1 \right|+ \frac{ 102 }{ 5 }\ln \left| x-2 \right|+C\] But its wrong :/
Oh my goodness ! what are you learning ?LOL
Wait, actually. I've learned this! I think.. Haha. :)
@InstagramModel Its Calc 2. lol
Oh. Figured Lol
\(A(\dfrac{1}{2}-2)^2=5(\dfrac{1}{2})^2-20*(\dfrac{1}{2})+45\\A(-3/2)^2=5/4-10+45\\A9/4=5/4+35=145/4\\A =145/9\)
You are soooooooooo hot!
\[\large\rm 5x^2-20x+45=stuff\]Plugging in x=-1/2,\[\large\rm 5\left(-\frac12\right)^2-20\left(-\frac12\right)+45=A\left(-\frac{5}{2}\right)^2\]Solving for A should give you ... err at least this is what I'm coming up with, \(\large\rm A=9\)
@Loser66 I think you plugged in x=1/2. It should be x= -1/2
Yes, my bad. :)
:P
@zepdrix Did you get \[-\frac{ 5 }{ x-2 }+\frac{ 9 }{ 2 } \ln|2x+1|-2\ln|x-2| +C\] ?
I dunno, I didn't finish the problem. Grr... hold on -_-
Oh... Sorry :/
Mmmmm yesssss good job.
Thanks :)
Just in case you wanted to see my work. I'm not sure how you solved for B, but I like to use some other easy peasy x value to find it.
I think I have my scanner settings are too high or something... It takes like 3 minutes to scan a page, and the detail is insane. You can zoom in and see every little eraser and pencil mark XD haha
Haha, I see xD
