Lesson Topic
Practice Test Rational Functions
Lesson Outline
I worked with Samantha to do problems simplifying complex fractions and solving equations with rational functions. I showed her how to obtain common denominators in both the upper and lower fractional functions. Then I showed her how multiplying the upper expression and lower one by the reciprocal of the lower expression would cancel the entire lower part of the complex fraction. I also showed her one example of how to solve equations with rational functions by first getting all terms to have the same denominator. After that, the denominators of all terms would be canceled and the numerators would be solved. After arriving at a solution, I showed Samantha that all solutions must be substituted into the original equation to see if they form a true statement. There was no assignment.
