Step-by-Step Analysis

We start by restating the problem in our own words to set up the task: decompose f(x) = (x+2)/[(x+1)(x-1)^2] into partial fractions of the form a/(x+1) + b/(x-1) + c/(x-1)^2, and then express the integral ∫ f(x) dx in the specified form involving A, B, D, where A, B, D are integers and C is the constant of integration. First, perform the partial fraction decomposi......Login to view full explanation
