Day 150 – April 27

Algebra: Chapter 13, Lesson 5, page 595.

Solving Rational Equations

Remember, we solve rational equations by multiplying both sides by the LCM of all the denominators. This can result in a quadratic equation. Sometimes, there can be extraneous solutions, so … you should always check all possible solutions.

Practice makes perfect, use ANY method to factor:

  • Box Method
  • Tables (like the book)
  • Graphs
  • Quadratic Formula.

Here are some more examples too.
