8 ICM Unit 0 β Algebra Review Lesson 3 β Simplifying Rational Expressions
Rational Function: Quotient of 2 polynomials written in simplest form with a denominator that cannot
be equal to zero (π¬π: π+π
(πβπ)(π+π); π β π ππ β π)
A rational function is undefined when the denominator is equal to zero.
1) Factor the denominator completely. 2) Set each factor equal to zero and solve. 3) State what values make the function undefined.
Example: For what values of π₯ is the following function undefined? π(π₯) =π₯2β3π₯+2
π₯3β4π₯
1) Factor the denominator completely: 2) Set each factor equal to zero and solve: 3) State the undefined values: The function π(π) will be undefined at π =
**From this point on, we will assume that the replacement set of the variables in the fraction includes no numbers for which the denominator will be equal to zero.
Simplest Form: Answers to all fraction problems should be in simplest form. To put rational expressions in simplest form, factor everything completely (numerator and denominator) and then divide out (cross out) the common factors in the numerator and denominator.

21 ICM Unit 0 β Algebra Review Lesson 6 β Solving Radical Equations
There are four steps to solving a radical equation: 1) Isolate the radical. 2) Raise both sides to the power of the root. 3) Solve for x. 4) Check for extraneous solution(s). What is an EXTRANEOUS solution? A solution to the final equation but not to the original equation. Extraneous solutions can occur when solving a square root equation but not when solving linear, quadratic or exponential equations. Examples:
1. βπ₯ = 8 2. βπ₯ + 7 = 8 3. 2βπ₯ + 6 = 14
4. β4βπ₯ + 11 = 3 5. (π₯ β 2)1

7. β10π₯2 β 49 = 3π₯ 8. β2π₯ β 6 = β5π₯ β 15 9. β6π₯ β 53
= β3π₯ + 23
10. β3π₯ + 7 = π₯ + 1 11. β15 β 7π₯ = π₯ β 1
12. βπ₯ + 2 = 4 β βπ₯ 13. βπ₯ + 3 = βπ₯ + 4
14. βπ₯ + 8 = βπ₯ + β3 15. βπ₯ + 3 = βπ₯ + 1 + 1
