Decompose (x + 8)/((x + 4)(x + 6)) 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+6). Combining gives [A(x+6)+B(x+4)]/[(x+4)(x+6)]. Matching coefficients gives A=2, B=-1. 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.
