Evaluate the following integral:

Question: Evaluate the following integral: $\int \frac{2 x+1}{(x+1)(x-2)} d x$ Solution: Here the denominator is already factored. So let $\frac{2 x+1}{(x+1)(x-2)}=\frac{A}{x+1}+\frac{B}{x-2} \ldots \ldots$ (i) $\Rightarrow \frac{2 x+1}{(x+1)(x-2)}=\frac{A(x-2)+B(x+1)}{(x+1)(x-2)}$ $\Rightarrow 2 x+1=A(x-2)+B(x+1) \ldots \ldots($ ii $)$ We need to solve for $A$ and $B$. One way to do this is to pick values for $x$ which will cancel each variable. Put $x=2$ in the above equation, we get $\Rightar...
