To find the domain of a rational function, you must.......

• .......set the denominator equal to zero, solve for the variable, then exclude those answers from the implied domain

• .......set the numerator equal to zero, solve for the variable, then exclude those answers from the implied domain

• .......simplify the expression by cancelling out the common factors

• .......use the 5-step method to factor, then exclude the factor(s) from the implied domain

The 3rd Learning Target of Section 7.1 is asking you to learn how to "Use ------ real-life problems.

When a rational function is written, it is understood that the real numbers that make the denominator zero are excluded from the final answer. This is the definition of --
