How do you express (3x )/ (x^2 * (x^2+1) ) in partial fractions? Precalculus Matrix Row Operations Partial Fraction Decomposition (Linear Denominators) 1 Answer Shwetank Mauria May 8, 2016 (3x)/(x^2*(x^2+1))=3/x-(3x)/(x^2+1) Explanation: (3x)/(x^2*(x^2+1))=3/(x*(x^2+1) and let its partial fractions be 3/(x*(x^2+1))hArrA/x+(Bx+C)/(x^2+1) or 3/(x*(x^2+1))hArr(A(x^2+1)+x(Bx+C))/(x*(x^2+1)) or 3/(x*(x^2+1))hArr(x^2(A+B)+Cx+A)/(x*(x^2+1)) or A+B=0, C=0 and A=3. Thus B=-3 Hence (3x)/(x^2*(x^2+1))=3/x-(3x)/(x^2+1) Answer link Related questions What does partial-fraction decomposition mean? What is the partial-fraction decomposition of (5x+7)/(x^2+4x-5)?
