Always try to simplify the equation first by taking out the common factors and factorise. Notice that the factors in the denominator are a repeated linear factor and a quadratic factor. (Refer to rules of partial fractions to write down the forms of the partial fractions). Sub in x values and compare coefficients to find the identities' values and plug the values back into the form to get your partial fractions.
Hope it helps! (:
