3 Rational Functions Rational functions are quotients of polynomial functions. This means that rational functions can be expressed as px ( ) f( x) qx ( ) where p and q are polynomial functions and qx ( ) 0. The domain of a rational function is the set of all real numbers except the x-values that make the denominator zero. Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 3
4 Example: Finding the Domain of a Rational Function Find the domain of the rational function: x 5 f( x). x 5 Rational functions contain division. Because division by 0 is undefined, we must exclude from the domain of each function values of x that cause the polynomial function in the denominator to be 0. x 5 0 x 5 The domain of f consists of all real numbers except 5. Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 4
5 Example: Finding the Domain of a Rational Function (continued) Find the domain of the rational function: x 5 f( x). x 5 The domain of f consists of all real numbers except 5. We can express the domain in set-builder or interval notation. Domain of f = xx 5 Domain of f = (,5) (5, ) Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 5
6 Example: Finding the Domain of a Rational Function Find the domain of the rational function: x gx ( ). x 5 Rational functions contain division. Because division by 0 is undefined, we must exclude from the domain of each function values of x that cause the polynomial function in the denominator to be 0. x 5 0 x 5 x 5 The domain of g consists of all real numbers except 5 or 5. Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 6
7 Example: Finding the Domain of a Rational Function (continued) Find the domain of the rational function: x gx ( ). x 5 The domain of g consists of all real numbers except 5 or 5. We can express the domain in set-builder or interval notation. Domain of g = xx 5, x 5 Domain of g = (, 5) ( 5,5) (5, ) Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 7
8 Example: Finding the Domain of a Rational Function Find the domain of the rational function: x 5 hx ( ). x 5 Rational functions contain division. Because division by 0 is undefined, we must exclude from the domain of each function values of x that cause the polynomial function in the denominator to be 0. x 5 0 x 5 x 5i No real numbers cause the denominator of h(x) to equal 0. The domain of h consists of all real numbers. Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 8
9 Example: Finding the Domain of a Rational Function (continued) Find the domain of the rational function: x 5 hx ( ). x 5 The domain of h consists of all real numbers. We can write the domain in interval notation: Domain of h = (, ) Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 9
10 Arrow Notation We use arrow notation to describe the behavior of some functions. Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 10
11 Definition of a Vertical Asymptote The line x = a is a vertical asymptote of the graph of a function f if f(x) increases or decreases without bound as x approaches a. Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 11
12 Definition of a Vertical Asymptote (continued) The line x = a is a vertical asymptote of the graph of a function f if f(x) increases or decreases without bound as x approaches a. Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 1
13 Locating Vertical Asymptotes px ( ) If f( x) is a rational function in which p(x) qx ( ) and q(x) have no common factors and a is a zero of q(x), the denominator, then x = a is a vertical asymptote of the graph of f. Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 13
14 Example: Finding the Vertical Asymptotes of a Rational Function Find the vertical asymptotes, if any, of the graph of the rational function: x f( x). x 1 There are no common factors in the numerator and the denominator. x 1 0 x 1 x 1 The zeros of the denominator are 1 and 1. Thus, the lines x = 1 and x = 1 are the vertical asymptotes for the graph of f. Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 14
15 Example: Finding the Vertical Asymptotes of a Rational Function (continued) Find the vertical asymptotes, if any, of the graph of the rational function: x f( x). The zeros of the x 1 denominator are 1 and 1. Thus, x 1 the lines x = 1 and x = 1 are the vertical x 1 asymptotes for the graph of f. Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 15
16 Example: Finding the Vertical Asymptotes of a Rational Function Find the vertical asymptotes, if any, of the graph of the rational function: x 1 hx ( ). x 1 We cannot factor the denominator of h(x) over the real numbers. The denominator has no real zeros. Thus, the graph of h has no vertical asymptotes. Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 16
17 Definition of a Horizontal Asymptote Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 17
18 Locating Horizontal Asymptotes Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 18
19 Example: Finding the Horizontal Asymptote of a Rational Function Find the horizontal asymptote, if any, of the graph of the rational function: 9x f( x). 3x 1 The degree of the numerator,, is equal to the degree of the denominator,. The leading coefficients of the numerator and the denominator, 9 and 3, are used to obtain the equation of the horizontal asymptote. 9 The equation of the horizontal asymptote is y 3 or y = 3. Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 19
20 Example: Finding the Horizontal Asymptote of a Rational Function Find the horizontal asymptote, if any, of the graph of the rational function: 9x f( x). 3x 1 y 3 The equation of the horizontal asymptote is y = 3. Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 0
21 Example: Finding the Horizontal Asymptote of a Rational Function Find the horizontal asymptote, if any, of the graph of the rational function: 9x gx ( ). 3x 1 The degree of the numerator, 1, is less than the degree of the denominator,. Thus, the graph of g has the x-axis as a horizontal asymptote. The equation of the horizontal asymptote is y = 0. Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 1
22 Example: Finding the Horizontal Asymptote of a Rational Function (continued) Find the horizontal asymptote, if any, of the graph of the rational function: 9x gx ( ). 3x 1 The equation of the horizontal asymptote is y = 0. y 0 Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc.
23 Example: Finding the Horizontal Asymptote of a Rational Function Find the horizontal asymptote, if any, of the graph of 3 the rational function: 9x hx ( ). 3x 1 The degree of the numerator, 3, is greater than the degree of the denominator,. Thus the graph of h has no horizontal asymptote. Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 3
24 Example: Finding the Horizontal Asymptote of a Rational Function (continued) Find the horizontal asymptote, if any, of the graph of 3 the rational function: 9x hx ( ). 3x 1 The graph has no horizontal asymptote. Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 4
25 Basic Reciprocal Functions Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 5
26 Example: Using Transformations to Graph a Rational Function 1 Use the graph of f( x) to graph x Begin with f( x) 1 x We ve identified two points and the asymptotes. Vertical asymptote x = 0 ( 1,1) 1 gx ( ) 1. x (1,1) Horizontal asymptote y = 0 Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 6
27 Example: Using Transformations to Graph a Rational Function (continued) 1 Use the graph of f( x) to graph x 1 gx ( ) 1. x The graph will shift units to the left. Subtract from each x-coordinate. The vertical asymptote is now x = Vertical asymptote x = ( 3, 1) ( 1,1) Horizontal asymptote y = 0 Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 7
28 Example: Using Transformations to Graph a Rational Function (continued) 1 Use the graph of f( x) to graph x 1 gx ( ) 1. x The graph will shift 1 unit down. Subtract 1 from each y-coordinate. The horizontal asymptote is now y = 1. Vertical asymptote x = ( 3, ) ( 1,0) Horizontal asymptote y = 1 Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 8
29 Strategy for Graphing a Rational Function The following strategy can be used to graph ( ) f( x) px. qx ( ) where p and q are polynomial functions with no common factors. 1. Determine whether the graph of f has symmetry. f ( x) f( x) y-axis symmetry f ( x) f( x) origin symmetry. Find the y-intercept (if there is one) by evaluating f(0).

30 Strategy for Graphing a Rational Function (continued) The following strategy can be used to graph ( ) f( x) px. qx ( ) where p and q are polynomial functions with no common factors. 3. Find the x-intercepts (if there are any) by solving the equation p(x) = Find any vertical asymptote(s) by solving the equation q(x) = 0. Copyright 014, 010, 007 Pearson Education, Inc. 30
31 Strategy for Graphing a Rational Function (continued) px ( ) The following strategy can be used to graph f( x) qx ( ) where p and q are polynomial functions with no common factors. 5. Find the horizontal asymptote (if there is one) using the rule for determining the horizontal asymptote of a rational function. 6.
