Exploring Adding and Subtracting Rational Expressions

The video tutorial introduces a graphic organizer for parent functions, focusing on linear, absolute value, and quadratic functions. It explains the characteristics of each function, including their graphs, domains, ranges, intercepts, end behaviors, and intervals of increase or decrease. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of these functions in algebra and how they will be referenced in future units.
