The document provides step-by-step instructions for graphing different types of rational functions and polynomials. It includes two examples of graphing rational equations, showing how to find the greatest common factor, factor the numerator and denominator, identify holes and asymptotes, and graph. It also gives an example of solving a word problem involving perimeter and area of a rectangular field enclosed by fencing. Finally, it discusses how to graph polynomials based on their degree and signs.
