Question 1103572: Find partial fraction decomposition of
It has a repeated quadratic factor in the denominator so I would start it as= +
then you would multiply the three sections by
then I got =
=
Then you would set up a series of equations but from the work above I'm certain it's wrong from where I split up the equation but I dont have a solution to this in my text. Thank you for any help!

Your work is fine; and the system of equations you need to solve to finish the problem is easily solved. The system is obtained by equating the coefficients of each power on the two sides of the equation:

x^3 term: A = 1
x^2 term: B = 0
x term: 16A+C = 0
constant term: 16B+D = 0

Surely you can finish from there; then the result is easy to check by plugging in the values you found for A, B, C, and D.
