Do all rational equations have a single solution? Why is that so?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

rational equations have 2 solutions

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

or 1, or 3, or 5, or 17....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok lol

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

\[\frac{1}{t}=4\]has one solutions \[\frac{x^2+2x+1}{2}=3\]has 2

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

I might not be understanding the question right...

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

It depends on the degree of the equation. The degree is the highest power of the equation. For example, the equation 3x^5 + 4x^3 + 9x =0 is a 5th degree equation and will have 5 roots. All the roots do not have to be real and some can be real or complex (imaginary).
