• A) \(\frac { A } { x - 2 } + \frac { B } { ( x - 5 ) ^ { 2 } } + \frac { C } { \left( x ^ { 2 } + 49 \right) ^ { 2 } }\)
• B) \(\frac { A } { x - 2 } + \frac { B } { ( x - 5 ) ^ { 2 } } + \frac { C x + D } { \left( x ^ { 2 } + 49 \right) ^ { 2 } }\)
• C) \(\frac { A } { x - 2 } + \frac { B } { x - 5 } + \frac { C } { ( x - 5 ) ^ { 2 } } + \frac { D } { x ^ { 2 } + 49 } + \frac { F } { \left( x ^ { 2 } + 49 \right) ^ { 2 } }\)
• D) \(\frac { A } { x - 2 } + \frac { B } { x - 5 } + \frac { C } { ( x - 5 ) ^ { 2 } } + \frac { D x + E } { x ^ { 2 } + 49 } + \frac { F x + G } { \left( x ^ { 2 } + 49 \right) ^ { 2 } }\)
