1. Algebra 2B Chapter 9

2. Lesson 9.1 Learning Targets: I can simplify Rational Expressions I can simplify complex fractions

3. Vocabulary Rational Expression: It’s the ratio of two polynomial expressions Examples: Complex Fraction: It’s a rational expression whose numerator and/or denominator contains a rational expression. Examples:

4. Multiplying Rational Expressions: Dividing Rational Expressions: Review: How to multiply and divide monomials: How to multiply, divide and find the power of a power: How to factor polynomials:

5. Summary of Factoring Techniques For all polynomials, first factor out the greatest common factor (GCF). For a binomial, check to see if it is any of the following: a.difference of squares: x 2 − y 2 = ( x + y) ( x − y) b.difference of cubes: x 3 − y 3 = ( x − y) ( x 2 + xy + y 2 ) c.sum of cubes: x 3 + y 3 = ( x + y) ( x 2 − xy + y 2 ) For a trinomial, use the T ax 2 + bx + c:
