Evaluate \int (9x^(2)+4x-1)/(2x^(3)+3x^(2)-2x)dx Solution Since the degree of the numerator is less than the degree of the denominator, we don't need to divide. We factor the denominator as 2x^(3)+3x^(2)-2x=x(2x^(2)+3x-2)=x(2x-1)(x+2). Since the denominator has three distinct linear factors, the partial fraction decomposition of the integrand has the following form [see this case]. (9x^(2)+4x-1)/(x(2x-1)(x+2))=(A)/(x)+(B)/(2x-1)+â—» To determine the values of A,B, and C, we multiply both sides of this equation by the least common denominator, x(2x-1)(x+2), obtaining Expanding the right side of the equation above and writing it in the standard form for polynomials, we get The polynomials on each side of th
