So what is it that you don't understand about the rational Expression?
Im sorry, it just that it is kinda confusing how it works.
Im just confused on how Rational expressions is either is a ratio of two polynomials or just one polynomails.
Oh i see. So about that Rational expressions or another way to called it Rational functions is a rational expression of two ratio polunomials.
For example let have f be a rational expression. If f can be written as a form of x/y which both of them are polynomials. Just like how they are polunomials any other type of expressions, like basic arithmetic operations. It can be performed on rational expressions.
Lets use numbers for example. So a polynomial x^2 - 16 / x^3 + 64 first thing we can do is factoring numerators and denominators.Which we would get (x+4)(x-4) / (x+4)(x^2-4x+16)And if we would ro reduce common factors we would get (x-4) / (x^2-4x+16)
So your saying that rational equations can be used to solve variety of problems that involve like addition, subtracts, etc?
