(14x + 10)/(x(x + 5)) decomposes as?
- 2/x + 12/(x +5)
- 3/x + 22/(x +5)
- 4/x + 16/(x +5)
- None of these
Explanation
Write (14x + 10)/(x(x + 5)) = A/x + B/(x + 5)
Multiply both sides by x(x + 5):
14x + 10 = A(x + 5) + Bx
Now find A and B by plugging in values for x:
Put x = 0:
14_0 + 10 = A(0 + 5) + B_0
10 = 5A
A = 2
Put x = -5:
14_(-5) + 10 = A(0) + B_(-5)
-70 + 10 = -5B
-60 = -5B
B = 12
So (14x + 10)/(x(x + 5)) = 2/x + 12/(x + 5)
