Explanation:
2 Since
x + 2x 8 = (x 2)(x + 4),

we have to choose A, B so that x2 + 5x + 6 = (x + 3)(x + 2) ,

18 A B we must choose A and B so that

Multiplying through by the least common de-
Equating numerators we thus see that nominator, we thus see that

18 = A(x + 4) + B(x 2) 5x + 14 = A(x + 2) + B(x + 3)


= x(A + B) + (4A 2B) . = x(A + B) + (2A + 3B) .

Hence Equating coefficients gives

A + B = 0, 4A 2B = 18 , A + B = 5, 2A + 3B = 14 ,

in which case in which case

A = 3, B = 3 . A = 1, B = 4.

we thus see that
Thus
18x = A(x2 + x + 1) + (Bx + C)(x 1)
3x 1 = Ax(x 3) + B(x 3) + Cx2 .
= A(x2 + x + 1)

Then, from (3) it follows that
On the other hand,
C = A = 6,
and, finally, from (1), x2 x 2 = (x 2)(x + 1) ,
