RATIONAL ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSIONS:


- A rational expression in one variable is an expression that can be written in
P
the form of Q , where P∧Q are Polynomials . Remember , Q ≠ 0.

DOMAIN:
- is the set of all possible values of the variable that are allowed
- restriction values can make a rational expression undefined.

ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION OF RATIONAL ALGEBRAIC


EXPRESSIONS: (LIKE DENOMINATORS)

How do we add and substract similar fractions?


- Add or Subtract the numerator then copy the common denominator
- Simplify, if possible.
Example:

2 1 3 4 2 2 1
1.) 4 + 4 = 4 2.) 6 − 6 = 6 = 3

3 1 4 3d 2d d
3.) 5 + 5 = 5 4.) 8

ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION OF RATIONAL ALGEBRAIC


EXPRESSIONS: (UNLIKE DENOMINATORS)

How do we add and substract dissimilar fractions?


- Find the LCD
- Solve for the numerator and simplify.
- Use butterfly method
Example:

2 1 12−2 10 5
1.) 2 − 6 = 12 = 12 = 6

2 1 8+2 10 5 1
2.) 2 + 4 = 8 = 8 = 4 ∨1 4

How do we add and substract rational expression with unlike denominators?


- Factor the denominator completely (get the highest degree)
- Find the LCD
- Write the equivalent expression of each rational expression using LCD.
- Add or subtract the numerators and keep the LCD.
Example:
awd
