Note: After lots of comparing coefficients, it is a good idea to check your answer by
substituting a simple value of into both sides of the identity to check that your answers
are correct. For example,
Substitute x  1 into LHS
 3  4  8  16  2  5
Substitute x  1 into RHS
 (3  4  1)  (1  3)  4  1
 0  2  4  1  5
LHS = RHS, so you can be fairly sure the identity is correct.

b 
x 1 ( x  1)
 ( x  1)( x 2  1)
So a = 1, b = −1, c = 1, d = 0 and e = 1.
