Hello I was given the following integral to solve

But I dont know what to do It i thought of dividing it into partial fractions but I cant seem to be able to turn the denominator into one.
Could You help me please?
You time is deeply appreciated, Thank You

The denominator is [tex]x^4+ 3x^2+ 2[/tex]. That is "quartic" but is of "quadratic form" since if we let [tex]y= x^2[/tex] we can write it [tex]y^2+ 3y+ 2= (y+ 1)(y+ 2)= (x^2+ 1)(x^2+ 2)[/tex]. Neither of those can be factored further (in real numbers) so the "partial fractions expansion' is
[tex]\frac{3x^2+ x+ 4}{x^4+ 3x^2+ 2}= \frac{Ax+ B}{x^2+ 1}+ \frac{Cx+ D}{x^2+ 2}[/tex].

One way to determine A, B, C, D is to add the fractions on the right side:
[tex]\frac{3x^2+ x+ 4}{x^4+ 3x^2+ 2}= \frac{(Ax+ B)(x^2+ 2)}{(x^2+ 1)(x^2+ 2)}+ \frac{(Cx+ D)(x^2+ 1)}{(x^2+ 1)(x^2+ 2)}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3x^2+ x+ 4}{x^4+ 3x^2+ 2}= \frac{Ax^3+ Bx^2+ 2Ax+ 2B+ Cx^3+ Dx^2+ Cx+ D}{x^4+ 3x^2+ 2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3x^2+ x+ 4}{x^4+ 3x^2+ 2}= \frac{(A+ C)x^3+ (B+ D)x^2+ (2A+ C)x+ 2B+ D}{x^4+ 3x^2+ 2}[/tex]

Since this is to be true for all x, the coefficients of corresponding powers must be equal:
A+ C= 0
B+ D= 3
2A+ C= 1
2B+ D= 4

We have four linear equations to solve for A, B, C, and D.

Since there has been no response for several days:
A+ C= 0
B+ D= 3
2A+ C= 1
2B+ D= 4

Subtracting A+ C= 0 from 2A+ C= 1, A= 1. Then A+ C= 1+ C= 0 so C= -1. Subtracting B+ D= 3 from 2B+ D= 4, B= 1, Then B+ D= 1+ D= 3 so D= 2.

$\frac{3x^2+ x+ 4}{x^4+ 3x^2+ 2}= \frac{x+ 1}{x^2+ 1}+ \frac{-x+ 2}{x^2+ 2}$

The integral then is
[tex]\int \frac{x}{x^2+ 1}dx+ \int\frac{1}{x^2+ 1}dx- \int\frac{x}{x^2+ 2}dx+ \int\frac{2}{x^2+ 2}[/tex].

The two with "x" can be integrated with the substitutions [tex]u= x^2+ 1[/tex] and [tex]u= x^2+ 2[/tex]. The other two are arctangent integrals.
