polynomials


In mathematics, a polynomial is an expression of finite length constructed from variables (also known as indeterminates) and constants, using only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and non-negative, whole-number exponents.

Rational function:

In mathematics, a rational function is any function which can be written as the ratio of two polynomial functions. It can be  written as((x - 2) / (x + 3))

Example Problems for Polynomials Rational Expressions

Polynomials rational expressions example problem 1:

Simplifying the given rational expressions ((5x + 15) / (10x + 40))

Solution:

Given rational expression is ((5x + 15) / (10x + 40))

Take 5 as common in the numerator value, we get

= ((5(x + 3)) / (10x + 40))

Take 10 as common in the denominator value, we get

= ((5(x + 3)) / (10(x + 4)))

Divide the both numerator and denominator value by 5, we get

= ((x + 3) / (2 (x + 4)))          

Answer:

The final answer is ((x + 3) / (2(x + 4)))

Polynomials rational expressions example problem 2:

Simplifying the given rational expressions ((4x + 12) / (2x + 84))

Solution:

Given rational expression is ((4x + 12) / (2x + 84))

Take 4 as common in the numerator value, we get

= ((4(x + 3)) / (2x + 84))

Take 2 as common in the denominator value, we get

= ((4(x + 3)) / (2(x + 42)))

Divide the both numerator and denominator value by 2 , we get

= ((2(x + 3)) / (x + 42))          

Answer:

The final answer is ((2(x + 3)) / (x + 42))

Algebra is widely used in day to day activities watch out for my forthcoming posts on Sphere Definition and Hemisphere Definition. I am sure they will be helpful.

Polynomials rational expressions example problem 3:

Simplifying the given rational expressions ((3x + 12) / (12x + 84))

Solution:

Given rational expression is ((3x + 12) / (12x + 84))

Take 3 as common in the numerator value, we get

= ((3(x + 4)) / (12x + 84))

Take 12 as common in the denominator value, we get

= ((3(x + 4)) / (12(x + 7)))

Divide the both numerator and denominator value by 3, we get

= ((x + 4) / (4 (x + 7)))          

Answer:

The final answer is ((x + 4) / (4(x + 7)))

Polynomials rational expressions example problem 4:

Simplifying the given rational expressions ((13x + 13) / (13x + 26))

Solution:

Given rational expression is ((13x + 13) / (13x + 26))

Take 13 as common in the numerator value, we get

= ((13(x + 1)) / (13x + 26))

Take 13 as common in the denominator value, we get

= ((13(x + 1)) / (13(x + 2)))

Divide the both numerator and denominator value by 13, we get

= ((x + 1) / (x + 2))          

Answer:

The final answer is ((x + 1) / (x + 2))
