  • Lesson 8-3 Analyzing Graphs of Rational Functions

    Find the vertical asymptotes and holes for the graph of each rational function.

    1. y equals . fraction 2 , over x minus 3 end fraction
    2. y equals . fraction x plus 2 , over open , 2 x plus 1 , close . open , x minus 4 , close end fraction
  • Lesson 8-4 Simplifying Complex Fractions

    Simplify each complex fraction.

    1. fraction fraction 2 , over eh end fraction , over fraction 1 , over b end fraction end fraction
    2. fraction 5 plus , 1 half , over 2 minus , 1 fifth end fraction
    3. fraction fraction 3 , over c plus d end fraction , over 2 end fraction
    4. fraction 1 fourth , over fraction 4 , over c end fraction end fraction
    5. fraction 2 thirds , over fraction 6 , over c plus 4 end fraction end fraction
    6. fraction fraction 4 , over x end fraction , over 2 eighths end fraction
    7. fraction 3 minus , 1 half , over 7 sixths end fraction
