decomposed into TWO "simpler" fractions

how would this be decomposed into TWO "simpler" fractions, thanks

f(x) =

-10x - 7
2x²- 17x +21

2x² - 17x +21 = (2x-3)(x-7)

The "simpler" fractions are a/(2x-3) and b/(x-7)

I'll let you figure out a and b.

thanks a bunch, after i knew that i was set

A= 4 B= -7
