Exploring Rational Functions and Holes

What is the main topic introduced in the first section of the video?

• Polynomial functions

• Rational functions and holes

• Trigonometric functions

• Exponential functions

In the context of rational functions, what does a 'hole' in the graph represent?

• A point where the function intersects the x-axis

• A point where the function has a minimum

• A point where the function has a maximum

• A point where the function is undefined
