Notice that the denominator on both sides is equal, meaning you can cancel them out, giving you: $$ 2x + 1 = ax + 2a + bx + b $$ -6. Next, group your $x$ values on one side, and your constants on the other side. You'll notice that $ax -$$ 2x+1 = $$ +6. Next, group your $x$ values on one side, and your constants on the other side. You'll notice that you can factor $ax + bx$, giving you $x(a+b)$. +$$ 2x+1 = x(a + b) + (2a + b) $$ +7. With the above equation, each side is in the same form. it's $x$ multiplied by a constant ($2$ on the left, and $(a+b)$ on the right, and with a constant of $1$ on the left and $2a + b$) on the right, letting you find the two equations below: +$$ 2 = a + b $$ +$$ 1 = 2a + b $$ + + ## Degree of the numerator is equal 1. First perform polynomial division. 2. Then find a partial fraction with the remainder
