Rational Functions

We are going to do a quick unit on Rational Functions (a way of putting our polynomial studies to work).  The pacing is rather aggressive so we can finish before Thanksgiving.  Make sure you keep up with your homework.

11/08  After the Polynomial Test, review Rational Functions (What are they? What do they look like? What do the zeros of the numerator tell you?  What do the zeros of the denominator tell you?  What else do you remember about them?)
