Rational Functions ( f (x)=
x order to get passed it I ignored it for the most part.
Because I can not find the work After that I would make the denominator equal zero
and I believe it is the perfect and solve for x from there. That process was for the
example my evidence for rational asymptotes. For the y intercepts it was simpler

because we have been doing that type of graphing
Difficult Denominators
since the 9th grade.

Evaluating Functions For evaluating functions there wasn't much to it, all
that was required was to plug in for x. The only time it
got complicated was when we had to use distributive
property due to its lengthy process. I would plug into
the table and solve from there.
The Arithmetic of Functions Arithmetic functions was the most tasking part about
this section. Since it involved plugging two equations
into another equation it was always a lengthy process
where i had to write step by step in order not to lose
track.
