| 1) What is the form of the partial fraction decomposition of Failed to parse (Conversion error. Server ("https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_") reported: "Cannot get mml. Server problem."): {\displaystyle {\frac {3x-37}{(x+1)(x-4)}}}
?

| 2) What is the form of the partial fraction decomposition of Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \frac{4x^2}{(x-1){(x-2)}^2}}
?

| Answer:
|
| 1) Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \frac{A}{x+1}+\frac{B}{x-4}}
|
| 2)Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \frac{A}{x-1}+\frac{B}{x-2}+\frac{C}{{(x-2)}^2}}

Solution:
| Step 1:
|
| We set Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \frac{6x^2 + 27x + 31}{(x + 3)^2(x-1)}=\frac{A}{x-1}+\frac{B}{x+3}+\frac{C}{{(x+3)}^2}}
.
|
| Step 2:
|
| Multiplying both sides of the equation by Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle (x + 3)^2(x-1)}
, we get
|
| Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle 6x^2+27x+31=A(x+3)^2+B(x+3)(x-1)+C(x-1)}
