Lesson: Simplifying Rational Functions Mathematics • 10th Grade

Students will be able to

• simplify rational functions by finding and eliminating common factors in the numerators and denominators,
• state the domain of a rational function by considering values of for which the denominator is equal to 0 (including a function that can be simplified),
• identify when two rational functions are equivalent,
• identify the common domain between two functions that reduce to the same simplified form,
• recognize when two rational functions are equivalent for values in their common domain.
