Rational Algebraic equation
Rational Algebraic equation is an equation containing at least one fraction whose numerator and denominator are polynomials.
To solve a rational algebraic equation that can be transformed into a quadratic equation, the following procedure can be followed.
- To eliminate the denominators, multiply both sides of the equation by the Least Common Denominator (LCD).
- Write the resulting quadratic equation in standard form.
- Find the roots of the resulting equation using any methods of solving quadratic equations.
- Check whether the obtained values of x make the equation true.
