Topic
Rationals and Radicals
Description
Addition of rational expressions involves combining rational expressions to create a new rational expression, often requiring a common denominator. Examples include 1 / x + 1 / 2x = 3 / 2x and 1 / (x + 1) + 1 / (x - 1) = 2x / (x2 - 1). This term introduces the concept of combining rational expressions, which is fundamental to operations involving fractions with polynomial expressions.
