Tuesday 12/3

We learned how to complete work together problems today using Notes #39. This was a hard lesson, and may require some extra work on your own to become comfortable with the concepts and proficient with all the problems.

I'd recommend spending some extra time with the notes tonight, especially the examples we didn't get to in class today. Purple Math, About.com, and Dr. Math are all great resources as well. Good luck and work hard!

If you get stuck on a few, be sure to bring me your questions in class tomorrow!

Monday 12/2

Today we learned how to add and subtract rational expressions with unlike denominators with Notes #38.

The key thing to remember is that you must first find a common denominator. Factoring the denominators helps you find the LCD, which will save you time! After that, just follow the same process as we learned before the Thanksgiving break.

Homework #60: TB pg 547 (#17-39 odd, #50)
Be sure to check your answers in the back of the book when finished!
