After studying this unit, the students will be able to:
- Know that a rational expression behaves like a rational number.
- Define a rational expression as the quotient p(x )/q(x ) of two polynomials p(x) and q(x) where q(x) is not the zero polynomial.
- Examine whether a given algebraic expression is a polynomial or not, rational expression or not.
- Define p(x)/q(x) as a rational expression in its lowest terms if p(x) and q(x) are polynomials with integral coefficients and having no common factor.
- Examine whether a given rational algebraic expression is in lowest from or not.
- Reduce a given rational expression to its lowest terms.
- Find the sum, difference and product of rational expressions.
- Divide a rational expression with another and express the result in it lowest terms.
- Find value of algebraic expression for some particular real number.
