Full solution

Q. Express 9x52(2x1)(x1) \frac{9 x-5}{2(2 x-1)(x-1)} in partial frac
  1. Multiply by Denominator: We want to express (9x5)/(2(2x1)(x1))(9x-5)/(2(2x-1)(x-1)) as A/(2x1)+B/(x1)A/(2x-1) + B/(x-1). To find AA and BB, we'll multiply both sides by the denominator 2(2x1)(x1)2(2x-1)(x-1).
  2. Equation with A and B: So we have 9x5=A(2x1)(x1)+B(2(2x1))9x - 5 = A(2x-1)(x-1) + B(2(2x-1)). Now we'll find the values of AA and BB by choosing suitable values for xx.
  3. Plug in x=1x=1: Let's plug in x=1x=1 to get rid of the AA term. We get 9(1)5=B(2(2(1)1))9(1) - 5 = B(2(2(1)-1)), which simplifies to 4=2B4 = 2B, so B=2B = 2.
  4. Plug in x=12x=\frac{1}{2}: Now let's plug in x=12x=\frac{1}{2} to get rid of the BB term. We get 9(12)5=A(2(12)1)((12)1)9(\frac{1}{2}) - 5 = A(2(\frac{1}{2})-1)((\frac{1}{2})-1), which simplifies to 4.5=A(0)((12))-4.5 = A(0)((-\frac{1}{2})), so A=0A = 0.
