(x^2 -x -21)/(2x^3-x^2+8x-4)
\n" ); document.write( "=(x^2 -x -21)/(2x-1)(x^2+4)
\n" ); document.write( "Let (x^2 -x -21)/(2x-1)(x^2+4) = A/(2x-1)+(Bx+C)/(x^2+4)
\n" ); document.write( "So,
\n" ); document.write( "x^2 -x -21 = A((x^2+4)+(Bx+C)(2x-1)..............(1)
\n" ); document.write( "For x=1/2:
\n" ); document.write( "1/4-1/2-21=A(1/4+4)
\n" ); document.write( "=>(21-42-4)/84 = A(17/4)
\n" ); document.write( "=>-25/21=17A
\n" ); document.write( "=> A=-25/(21*17) = -25/357;
\n" ); document.write( "For x=0
\n" ); document.write( "-21=4A-C
\n" ); document.write( "=>C=4A+21; substitute the value of A to get C
\n" ); document.write( "For x=1
\n" ); document.write( "-21=5A+B+C
\n" ); document.write( "substitute the value of A and C to get B
\n" ); document.write( "After you get A, B, and C, use equation (1) to express the given equation in Partial Factor Decomposition form\r
