Lesson Nineteen: Introductory Explorations

In this lesson you will learn a new class of rational functions. You will view an exploration of varying the perimeter while keeping the area constant and the reciprocal function f(x) = 1/x.

You Will Learn:

  • To visualize the concept with the aid of manipulatives.
  • The properties of the reciprocal function.
  • The general form of a rational function.
  • The simplest form of a rational function.
