a example of a rational function

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

any function that has a variable in the denominator

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

like \[ y = \frac 1x\]

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

or \[y = \frac{1}{x+1}\] or anything else

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

does that help?

hero (hero):

I usually use f(x) for functions

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

heh \[f(x) = \frac 1x\] then :p

OpenStudy (anonymous):

here's a pretty informative link: http://mathworld.wolfram.com/RationalNumber.html

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and then http://mathworld.wolfram.com/RationalFunction.html

hero (hero):

Rational Number isn't exactly the same as rational function, but okay. I get the feeling she may have wanted a graphical representation of rational function

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hero your right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I was giving a good background, hero :)

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

oh...a graph huh...should've specified that sooner :p

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry Haha But I also need the function if that makes sense idk how to explain it
