Determine the form of the partial fraction decomposition of

Determine the form of the partial fraction decomposition of the following rational expression. 8x^2 +8x -17/(x + 8) (x +8)^2 Choose the correct answer below. A/x + 8 + Bx + c/x + 8 + Dx + E/(x+8)^2 A/x + 8 + B/(x + 8)^2 A/x + 8 + B/x + 8 + C/(x + 8)^2 A/x + 8 + Bx + C/x + 8

Solution

Partial fraction is of the form;

(ax+b)^2 = A/(ax+b) +B/(ax+b)^2

(8x^2+8x-17)/[(x+8)(x+8)^2 ] =

A/(x+8) + B/(x+8) + c/(x+8)

Answer is 3)
