Vedclass · Answer

(A) Given expression is $f(x) = \frac{x^2 - 5}{x^2 - 3x + 2}$.Since the degree of the numerator is equal to the degree of the denominator,we perform long division:$x^2 - 5 = 1(x^2 - 3x + 2) + (3x - 7)$.So,$f(x) = 1 + \frac{3x - 7}{(x - 1)(x - 2)}$.Now,decompose $\frac{3x - 7}{(x - 1)(x - 2)}$ into partial fractions:$\frac{3x - 7}{(x - 1)(x - 2)} = \frac{A}{x - 1} + \frac{B}{x - 2}$.$3x - 7 = A(x - 2) + B(x - 1)$.For $x = 1$: $3(1) - 7 = A(1 - 2)$ $\Rightarrow -4 = -A$ $\Rightarrow A = 4$.For $x = 2$: $3(2) - 7 = B(2 - 1)$ $\Rightarrow -1 = B$ $\Rightarrow B = -1$.Therefore,$f(x) = 1 + \frac{4}{x - 1} - \frac{1}{x - 2}$.

The partial fraction of $\frac{x^2 - 5}{x^2 - 3x + 2}$ is:
