x^{2}-2x-9=Ax^{2}+3A+\left(Bx+C\right)\left(2x-1\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply A by x^{2}+3.
x^{2}-2x-9=Ax^{2}+3A+2Bx^{2}-Bx+2Cx-C
Use the distributive property to multiply Bx+C by 2x-1.
Ax^{2}+3A+2Bx^{2}-Bx+2Cx-C=x^{2}-2x-9
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
Ax^{2}+3A-Bx+2Cx-C=x^{2}-2x-9-2Bx^{2}
Subtract 2Bx^{2} from both sides.
Ax^{2}+3A+2Cx-C=x^{2}-2x-9-2Bx^{2}+Bx
Add Bx to both sides.
Ax^{2}+3A-C=x^{2}-2x-9-2Bx^{2}+Bx-2Cx
Subtract 2Cx from both sides.
Ax^{2}+3A=x^{2}-2x-9-2Bx^{2}+Bx-2Cx+C
Add C to both sides.
\left(x^{2}+3\right)A=x^{2}-2x-9-2Bx^{2}+Bx-2Cx+C
Combine all terms containing A.
\left(x^{2}+3\right)A=-2Bx^{2}+x^{2}+Bx-2Cx-2x+C-9
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(x^{2}+3\right)A}{x^{2}+3}=\frac{-2Bx^{2}+x^{2}+Bx-2Cx-2x+C-9}{x^{2}+3}
Divide both sides by x^{2}+3.
A=\frac{-2Bx^{2}+x^{2}+Bx-2Cx-2x+C-9}{x^{2}+3}
Dividing by x^{2}+3 undoes the multiplication by x^{2}+3.
x^{2}-2x-9=Ax^{2}+3A+\left(Bx+C\right)\left(2x-1\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply A by x^{2}+3.
x^{2}-2x-9=Ax^{2}+3A+2Bx^{2}-Bx+2Cx-C
Use the distributive property to multiply Bx+C by 2x-1.
Ax^{2}+3A+2Bx^{2}-Bx+2Cx-C=x^{2}-2x-9
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
3A+2Bx^{2}-Bx+2Cx-C=x^{2}-2x-9-Ax^{2}
Subtract Ax^{2} from both sides.
2Bx^{2}-Bx+2Cx-C=x^{2}-2x-9-Ax^{2}-3A
Subtract 3A from both sides.
2Bx^{2}-Bx-C=x^{2}-2x-9-Ax^{2}-3A-2Cx
Subtract 2Cx from both sides.
2Bx^{2}-Bx=x^{2}-2x-9-Ax^{2}-3A-2Cx+C
Add C to both sides.
2Bx^{2}-Bx=-Ax^{2}+x^{2}-2Cx-2x+C-3A-9
Reorder the terms.
\left(2x^{2}-x\right)B=-Ax^{2}+x^{2}-2Cx-2x+C-3A-9
Combine all terms containing B.
\frac{\left(2x^{2}-x\right)B}{2x^{2}-x}=\frac{-Ax^{2}+x^{2}-2Cx-2x+C-3A-9}{2x^{2}-x}
Divide both sides by 2x^{2}-x.
B=\frac{-Ax^{2}+x^{2}-2Cx-2x+C-3A-9}{2x^{2}-x}
Dividing by 2x^{2}-x undoes the multiplication by 2x^{2}-x.
B=\frac{-Ax^{2}+x^{2}-2Cx-2x+C-3A-9}{x\left(2x-1\right)}
Divide -Ax^{2}+x^{2}-2Cx-2x+C-3A-9 by 2x^{2}-x.
