PARTIAL FRACTIONS Example 2
𝟕𝒙+𝟗
A function R(x) is said to be rational function of x if and only if there exist
polynomials f(x) and g(x) such that R(x) = f(x) / g(x). The function f(x) / g(x) 𝟑𝒙𝟐 −𝟖𝒙−𝟑
sometimes is called a rational fraction.

A proper fraction is a rational fraction where the degree of the numerator is less
than the degree of denominator.

An improper fraction is one where the degree of the numerator is greater than
equal to the degree of denominator.

Case I: Linear Factors not repeated

Example 1
𝟕𝒙𝟐−𝟐𝟑𝒙+𝟏𝟎
(𝟑𝒙−𝟏)(𝒙−𝟏)(𝒙+𝟐)

Example 3

𝒙𝟑 +𝟑𝒙𝟐+𝟔𝒙+𝟕
𝒙𝟐 +𝟑𝒙+𝟐
Case II: repeated linear factors 𝟒𝒙𝟑 + 𝟏𝟔𝒙𝟐 − 𝟓𝒙 + 𝟑
(𝒙 − 𝟏)𝟐 (𝒙 + 𝟐)𝟐
𝟑𝒙 − 𝟒
(𝒙 − 𝟐)𝟐

𝟑𝒙𝟐 + 𝟏𝟔𝒙 + 𝟐𝟎
(𝒙 + 𝟑)𝟑
Case III: Quadratic factors, not repeated Case IV: repeated quadratic factors

𝟑𝒙𝟐 − 𝒙 + 𝟏
𝒙 + 𝟏 (𝒙𝟐 −𝒙 + 𝟑) 𝒙𝟒 + 𝒙𝟑 +𝟐𝒙𝟐 −𝟕
𝒙 + 𝟐 (𝒙𝟐 +𝒙 + 𝟏)𝟐
