Rewrite the fraction $\frac{1}{x^2\left(x+2\right)}$ in $3$ simpler fractions using partial fraction decomposition

$\frac{1}{x^2\left(x+2\right)}=\frac{A}{x^2}+\frac{B}{x+2}+\frac{C}{x}$

Learn how to solve integrals by partial fraction expansion problems step by step online.

$\frac{1}{x^2\left(x+2\right)}=\frac{A}{x^2}+\frac{B}{x+2}+\frac{C}{x}$

Learn how to solve integrals by partial fraction expansion problems step by step online. Find the integral int(1/(x^2(x+2)))dx. Rewrite the fraction \frac{1}{x^2\left(x+2\right)} in 3 simpler fractions using partial fraction decomposition. Find the values for the unknown coefficients: A, B, C. The first step is to multiply both sides of the equation from the previous step by x^2\left(x+2\right). Multiplying polynomials. Simplifying.
