17-22. Give the partial fraction decomposition for the following expressions.
17. (5x - 7) / (x² - 3x + 2)

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Start by factoring the denominator of the given rational expression. The denominator is \(x^{2} - 3x + 2\). Find two numbers that multiply to \(2\) and add to \(-3\).
Rewrite the denominator as a product of its factors: \(x^{2} - 3x + 2 = (x - 1)(x - 2)\).
Set up the partial fraction decomposition form for the expression \(\frac{5x - 7}{(x - 1)(x - 2)}\) as \(\frac{A}{x - 1} + \frac{B}{x - 2}\), where \(A\) and \(B\) are constants to be determined.
Multiply both sides of the equation by the denominator \((x - 1)(x - 2)\) to clear the fractions, resulting in \(5x - 7 = A(x - 2) + B(x - 1)\).
Expand the right side and collect like terms, then equate the coefficients of corresponding powers of \(x\) on both sides to form a system of equations. Solve this system to find the values of \(A\) and \(B\).

Partial Fraction Decomposition

Partial fraction decomposition is a technique used to express a rational function as a sum of simpler fractions with denominators that are factors of the original denominator. This method simplifies integration and other operations by breaking down complex fractions into manageable parts.

Factoring Quadratic Expressions

Factoring quadratic expressions involves rewriting a quadratic polynomial as a product of two binomials. For example, x² - 3x + 2 factors into (x - 1)(x - 2). Factoring is essential in partial fraction decomposition to identify the denominators of the simpler fractions.
