The video tutorial covers multiplying and dividing rational expressions. It begins with an introduction to rational expressions, emphasizing the importance of factoring and determining domain restrictions. The tutorial then demonstrates how to simplify expressions by canceling common factors. It provides detailed steps for multiplying and dividing rational expressions, ensuring students understand how to find domain restrictions throughout the process.

What is a rational expression?

• A fraction with non-zero polynomials in the numerator and denominator

• A fraction with zero in the denominator

• A fraction with integers in the numerator and denominator

• A fraction with zero in the numerator

Why is it important to determine the domain of a rational expression?

• To ensure the numerator is not zero

• To ensure the expression is a whole number

• To ensure both numerator and denominator are zero

• To ensure the denominator is not zero
