Radical Expressions & Radical Exponents - So far, you've dealt with a lot. From adding polynomials to multiplying polynomials. From graphing the equation, to graphing its inverse. Now, we're going to take it a step further and have you deal with fractional exponents! Learn the similarities between roots and fractional exponents here!
Lesson - Radical Expressions & Radical Exponents
What you may need for this lesson:
Simplifying Radical Expressions - What happens when a radical expression becomes a little too crazy to deal with? Is there a chance that what we are seeing is a more complicated version of what we need? Find out how to simplify these expressions here!
Lesson - Simplifying Radical Expressions
Solving Radical Equations - So now you've realized the similarities between fractional exponents, and roots. You've simplified radical expressions so they don't look so scary, and now let's look at how to put those skills to use so we can actually sovle some of these radical equations. Learn the techniques to do that here!

What you may need for this lesson:
Adding & Subtracting Rational Expressions: Excluding Values - So we've gone through solving for x in our rational expression, when suddenly we find a wrong answer! Did we do something wrong? Or are there answers that seem right, that when plugged back in, are wrong? Learn about what answers you want to avoid getting, here!

What you may need for this lesson:
Multiplying Rational Expressions - Now you know that multiplying polynomials is a task, but what about when we start dealing with rational expressions? Fractions are bad enough, but multiplying them? Learn how to properly factor out the expressions to make multiplying much easier!
Lesson - Multiplying Rational Expressions
Dividing Rational Expressions - So you know how to multiply rational expressions together, but how about dividing them? Can we divide fractions? Or will that just look weird? Look here to find different ways to approach the same problem!
