    This document contains information about rational functions, equations, and inequalities. It defines rational expressions and functions, and discusses how to solve rational equations using the least common denominator (LCD) method. It provides examples of solving equations like (2x)/(x+2) = (5x-3)/(5x) by finding the LCD, clearing denominators, and solving the resulting equation. The document emphasizes that solutions must be checked by substitution back into the original equation.

    Rational Functions, Equations, and Inequalities

    Rational equation or inequality can be solved for all


    x values that satisfy the equation or inequality. A
    rational function expresses a relationship between
    two variables (such as x and y ), and can be
    represented by a table or values or a graph.

    Solving Rational Equations
    using LCD
    To solve a rational equation:
    1. Find the common
    denominator.
    2. Clear denominators by
    multiplying both sides of the
