LOGICAL REASONING Tell whether the statement is
always true, sometimes true, or never true.
Explain your reasoning.
  • The LCD of two rational expressions is the
    product of the denominators.
  • Sometimes
  • The LCD of two rational expressions will have a
    degree greater than or equal to that of the
    denominator with the higher degree.
  • Always

Chapter 6Rational Expressions and Equations
  • Section 6.5
  • Synthetic Division

39
Part 1
Dividing using Synthetic
Division
Objective Use synthetic division to find the
quotient of certain polynomials
  • Algorithm
  • A systematic procedure for doing certain
    computations.
  • The Division Algorithm used in section 6.4 can be
    shortened if the divisor is a linear polynomial
  • Synthetic Division

40
Part 1
Dividing using Synthetic
Division
EXAMPLE 1
To see how synthetic division works, we will use
long division to divide the polynomial
by
41
Dividing PolynomialsUsing Synthetic Division
42
Synthetic Division
There is a shortcut for long division as long as
the divisor is x k where k is some number.
(Can't have any powers on x).

This is the remainder
Put variables back in (one x was divided out in
process so first number is one less power than
original problem).
List all coefficients (numbers in front of x's)
and the constant along the top. If a term is
missing, put in a 0.
So the answer is

Now put variables back in (remember one x was
divided out in process so first number is one
less power than original problem so x3).
List all coefficients (numbers in front of x's)
and the constant along the top. Don't forget the
0's for missing terms.
So the answer is
44
Let's try a problem where we factor the
polynomial completely given one of its factors.
You want to divide the factor into the polynomial
so set divisor 0 and solve for first number.

List all coefficients (numbers in front of x's)
and the constant along the top. If a term is
missing, put in a 0.
So the answer is the divisor times the quotient
You could check this by multiplying them out and
getting original polynomial

6-6 Solving Rational Equation
. . . And Why To solve problems using rational
equations
50
To solve a rational equation, we multiply both
sides by the LCD to clear fractions.
51
Multiplying by the LCD
Multiplying to remove parentheses
Simplifying
52
(No Transcript)
53
The LCD is x - 5, We multiply by x - 5 to clear
fractions
5 is not a solution of the original equation
because it results in division by 0, Since 5 is
the only possible solution, the equation has no
solution.
54
No Solution
y 57
55
The LCD is x - 2. We multiply by x - 2.
56
The number -2 is a solution, but 2 is not since
it results in division by O.

The solutions are 2 and 3.

Warm Up
Solve the following equation
68
Tom knows that he can mow a golf course in 4
hours. He also knows that Perry takes 5 hours to
mow the same course. Tom must complete the job in
2! hours. Can he and Perry get the job done in
time? How long will it take them to complete the
job together?
69
Solving Work Problems
  • If a job can be done in t hours, then 1/t of it
    can be done in one hour. This is also true for
    any measure of time.

70

equations.

same lawn in 5 hours. How long would it take both
of them, working together with two lawn mowers,
to mow the lawn?

take the two of them to mow the lawn together?

Objective Solve work problems using rational
equations.
At a factory, smokestack A pollutes the air twice
as fast as smokestack B.When the stacks operate
together, they yield a certain amount of
pollution in 15 hours. Find the time it would
take each to yield that same amount of pollution
operating alone.
1/x is the fraction of the pollution produced by
A in 1 hour.
1/2x is the fraction of the pollution produced by
B in 1 hour.
1/15 is the fraction of the total pollution
produced by A and B in 1 hour.

  • Try This
  • A boat travels 246 mi downstream in the same time
    it takes to travel 180 mi upstream. The speed of
    the current in the stream is 5.5 mi/h. Find the
    speed of the boat in still water.
  • 35.5 mi/h
  • Susan Chen plans to run a 12.2 mile course in 2
    hours. For the first 8.4 miles she plans to run
    at a slower pace, then she plans to speed up by 2
    mi/h for the rest of the course. What is the
    slower pace that Susan will need to maintain in
    order to achieve this goal?

e. about 5.5 mi/h

Try This
Jorge Martinez is making a business trip by car.
After driving half the total distance, he finds
he has averaged only 20 mi/h, because of numerous
traffic tie-ups. What must be his average speed
for the second half of the trip if he is to
average 40 mi/h for the entire trip? Answer this
question using the following method.
  • Let d represent the distance Jorge has traveled
    so far, and let r represent his average speed for
    the remainder of the trip. Write a rational
    function, in terms of d and r, that gives the
    total time Jorges trip will take.

Direct Variation
Whenever a situation translates to a linear
function f(x) kx, or y kx, where k is a
nonzero constant, we say that there is direct
variation, or that y varies directly with x. The
number k is the Constant of Variation

Describe the variational relationship between x
and z and demonstrate this relationship
algebraically.
  • x varies directly with y, and y varies inversely
    with z.
  • x varies inversely with y, and y varies inversely
    with z.
  • x varies jointly with y and w, and y varies
    directly with z, while w varies inversely with z.

105
The weight of an object on a planet varies
directly with the planets mass and inversely
with the square of the planet's radius. If all
planets had the same density, the mass of the
planet would vary directly with its volume, which
equals
  • Use this information to find how the weight of an
    object w varies with the radius of the planet,
    assuming that all planets have the same density.
  • Earth has a radius of 6378 km, while Mercury
    (whose density is almost the same as Earths) has
    a radius of 4878 km. If you weigh 125 lb on
    Earth, how much would you weigh on Mercury?
