Rationalizing the Denominator
• For a denominator with square roots, it may be
rationalized by multiplying an expression that
makes the denominator a difference of two
squares.
Addition and Subtraction of Fractions
• If we add two fractions having the same
denominator, we get a fraction whose
denominator is the common denominator.

• A variable (e.g. x, y) is a symbol that can be
replaced by any one of a set of different
numbers.
©2007 Pearson Education Asia
Equivalent Equations
• Two equations are said to be equivalent if they
have exactly the same solutions.
• There are three operations that guarantee
equivalence:
1. Adding/subtracting the same polynomial
to/from both sides of an equation.
2. Multiplying/dividing both sides of an
equation by the same nonzero constant.
3. Replacing either side of an equation by an
equal expression.
