1 TEKS 8. A..A, A.0.F Add nd Subtrct Rtionl Epressions Before Now You multiplied nd divided rtionl epressions. You will dd nd subtrct rtionl epressions. Why? So you cn determine monthly cr lon pyments, s in E. 4. Key Vocbulry comple frction As with numericl frctions, the procedure used to dd (or subtrct) two rtionl epressions depends upon whether the epressions hve like or unlike denomintors. KEY CONCEPT For Your Notebook Adding or Subtrcting with Like Denomintors To dd (or subtrct) rtionl epressions with like denomintors, simply dd (or subtrct) their numertors. Then plce the result over the common denomintor. Let, b, nd c be epressions with c Þ 0.

2 KEY CONCEPT For Your Notebook Adding or Subtrcting with Unlike Denomintors To dd (or subtrct) two rtionl epressions with unlike denomintors, find common denomintor. Rewrite ech rtionl epression using the common denomintor. Then dd (or subtrct). Let, b, c, nd d be epressions with c Þ 0 nd d Þ 0. Addition Subtrction b d bc d bc c b d bc d bc c d cd cd cd d cd cd cd You cn lwys find common denomintor of two rtionl epressions by multiplying their denomintors, s shown bove. However, if you use the lest common denomintor (LCD), which is the lest common multiple (LCM) of the denomintors, you my hve less simplifying to do. E XAMPLE Find lest common multiple (LCM) Find the lest common multiple of 4 6 nd STEP Fctor ech polynomil. Write numericl fctors s products of primes ( 4) ( )( )( ) ( 4 4) ()()( ) STEP Form the LCM by writing ech fctor to the highest power it occurs in either polynomil. LCM ( )()( )( ) ( )( ) E XAMPLE Add with unlike denomintors Add: 9 REVIEW LCDS For help with finding lest common denomintors, see p To find the LCD, fctor ech denomintor nd write ech fctor to the highest power it occurs.

( )( ) ( )( ) AVOID ERRORS After you simplify the numertor, check to see if the numertor hs fctor in common with the denomintor. If so, the epression cn be simplified further. 6 (4 ) ( )( ) Subtrct numertors. 4 ( )( ) Simplify numertor. ( )( 4) ( )( ) Fctor numertor. Divide out common fctor. 4 ( ) Simplify. GUIDED PRACTICE for Emples,, nd 4 Find the lest common multiple of the polynomils.. nd nd Perform the indicted opertion nd simplify KEY CONCEPT For Your Notebook Simplifying Comple Frctions A comple frction is frction tht contins frction in its numertor or denomintor. A comple frction cn be simplified using either of the methods below. Method : If necessry, simplify the numertor nd denomintor by writing ech s single frction. Then divide the numertor by the denomintor. Method : Multiply the numertor nd the denomintor by the lest common denomintor (LCD) of every frction in the numertor nd denomintor. Then simplify. 84 Chpter 8 Rtionl Functions
