Topic

Rationals and Radicals

Description

Multiplication of rational expressions involves multiplying the numerators and denominators of each expression. For example, (x / (x + 1)) * ((x - 1) / 3) simplifies to (x * (x - 1)) / (3 * (x + 1)), illustrating its application in simplifying complex expressions. Covers the multiplication of rational expressions, essential for algebraic simplifications and solving equations.
