Decompose (-2*x – 6)/((x + 4)(x + 5)) into partial fractions.
Note
Because the denominator is a product of two different linear factors, split the fraction into two simpler fractions, one over each factor. Assume A/(x+4) + B/(x+5). Combining gives [A(x+5)+B(x+4)]/[(x+4)(x+5)]. Matching coefficients gives A=2, B=-4. In practice, compare the coefficient of x and the constant term on both sides to find A and B. After A and B are found, place them above their matching denominators to get the partial fraction form.
