![**Partial Fraction Decomposition Example**
The task is to write out the form of the partial fraction decomposition of the given functions, as demonstrated in an example linked previously.
---
**Problem (a):**
Function:
\[
\frac{x^4 - 2x^3 + x^2 + 7x - 6}{x^2 - 2x + 1}
\]
- There is an empty box provided for writing the decomposition.
- A red "X" beside the box indicates that the current decomposition attempt is incorrect.
---
**Problem (b):**
Function:
\[
\frac{x^2 - 1}{x^3 + x^2 + x}
\]
- Another empty box is provided for entering the decomposition.
- Similarly, a red "X" beside this box suggests the attempt is incorrect.
---
In both parts, the task involves breaking down the given rational functions into simpler fractions that can be more easily integrated or manipulated.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F2d753b00-1278-4d8e-8b55-8c96e959a26e%2F2849729e-ac83-4373-980c-855af2e48718%2F9bm9ub9_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
