If $\frac{1-x+6 x^2}{1-x^3}=\frac{A}{x}+\frac{B}{1+x}+\frac{C}{1+x}$, then $A$ is equal to
If $\frac{1-x+6 x^2}{1-x^3}=\frac{A}{x}+\frac{B}{1+x}+\frac{C}{1+x}$, then $A$ is equal to
- $1$
- $2$
- $3$
- $4$
Solution
We have,
$
\begin{aligned}
\frac{1-x+6 x^2}{x-x^3} & =\frac{A}{x}+\frac{B}{1-x}+\frac{C}{1+x} \\
\Rightarrow \quad 1-x+6 x^2 & =A\left(1-x^2\right)+B x(1+x)+C x(1-x)
\end{aligned}
$
Put $x=0$, then $A=1$
