Math 30-2 Information Bulletin 2023-2024

From the Alberta Education website:

“Students have difficulty in solving rational equations, especially when the rational equation simplifies to a quadratic equation. They struggle with determining both possible solutions to a quadratic equation and then checking if they are valid solutions”. 

We will talk about the role clearing fractions has in the process to solve a rational equation. Checking for non-permissible values and extraneous roots is also discussed.
