15.2: Rational Equations

( \newcommand{\kernel}{\mathrm{null}\,}\)

  • 15.2.1: Solving Rational Equations and Applications
    Equations that contain rational expressions are called rational equations. You can solve these equations using the techniques for performing operations with rational expressions and the procedures for solving algebraic equations. Rational equations can be useful for representing real-life situations and for finding answers to real problems. In particular, they are quite good for describing distance-speed-time relationships and for modeling work problems that involve more than one person.
