is anyone here who can help me understand rational expressions?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

glorified fractions is all they is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

meaning what?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

meaning they are something that looks like a fraction and behaves like a fraction and follow the rules and applications of fractions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks...they look so intimidating

OpenStudy (amistre64):

since a fraction cant have zero in the underside; rational expressions have to be defined such that they dont produce a zero on the underside and those missing value (bad value) are called asymptotes alot of the time

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks! you have been a great help.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

yw, and good luck
