Business EnvironmentIn this discussion, you are
assigned two rational expressions with which you will
then do a variety of math work. Remember that each

polynomial must be fully factored and that you can


only cancel factors; you cannot cancel terms.

example to complete this discussion:Find your two
rational expressions in the list below based on your
first initial.Find and state the common denominator
between the two expressions. Build up each
expression so that it has the common denominator.
(Remember not to do any canceling at this point
since you need those extra factors for the common
denominator.)Add the two rational expressions
together. Factor again if possible, and present the
answer in lowest terms.Incorporate the following five
math vocabulary words into your discussion.
Use bold font to emphasize the words in your writing
(Do not write definitions for the words; use them

learn how to solve the formula for another variable.
Your solution to the above problems, making sure to
include all mathematical work. A discussion of how
and why these concepts are important in the real
world. Describe another situation that could be
evaluated using these concepts. Week 3 DQ
Simplifying Radicals.In this discussion, you will
simplify and compare equivalent expressions written
both in radical form and with rational (fractional)
exponents. Read the following instructions in order
and view the example to complete this discussion:a.
Find the rational exponent problems assigned to you
in the table below.If the last letter of your
first name isOn pages 576 577, do the
following problemsA or L42 and 101B or K96
and 60C or J46 and 104D or I94 and 62E or H52
and 102F or G90 and 64M or Z38 and 72N or Y78
and 70O or X44 and 74P or W80 and 68Q or V50

and 76R or U84 and 66S or T54 and 100b. Simplify


each expression using the rules of exponents and
examine the steps you are taking.c. Incorporate the
following five math vocabulary words into your
discussion. Use bold font to emphasize the words in
your writing (Do not write definitions for the
words; use them appropriately in sentences
describing the thought behind your math
work.): Principal root Product rule Quotient rule
Reciprocal nth rootRefer to Inserting Math Symbols
for guidance with formatting. Be aware that with
regards to the square root symbol, you will notice
that it only shows the front part of a radical and not
the top bar. Thus, it is impossible to tell how much of
an expression is included in the radical itself unless
you use parenthesis. For example, if we have 12 +
9 it is not enough for us to know if the 9 is under the
radical with the 12 or not. Thus we must specify
whether we mean it to say (12) + 9 or (12 + 9). As

there is a big difference between the two, this


distinction is important in your notation.Another
solution is to type the letters sqrt in place of the
radical and use parenthesis to indicate how much is
included in the radical as described in the second
method above. The example above would appear as
either sqrt(12) + 9 or sqrt(12 + 9) depending on
what we needed it to say.Week 4 Assignment Real
World Quadratic Functions.Read the following
instructions in order to complete this assignment:a.
Solve problem 56 on pages 666-667 of Elementary
and Intermediate Algebra.b. Write a two to three
page paper that is formatted in APA style and
according to the Math Writing Guide. Format your
math work as shown in the example and be concise
in your reasoning. In the body of your essay, please
make sure to include: An explanation of the basic
shape and location of the graph and what it tells us
about the Profit function. Your solutions (it is a

double question) to the above problem, making sure


to include all mathematical work for both problems.
Discuss how and why this is important for managers
to know, and explain what could happen if the ideal
conditions were not met. Week 4 DQ Solving
Quadratic Equations.In this discussion, you will
solve quadratic equations by two main methods:
factoring and using the Quadratic Formula. Read the
following instructions in order and view the example
to complete this discussion:a. Find the problems
assigned to you in the table below.b. For the
factoring problem, be sure you show all steps to the
factoring and solving. Show a check of your
solutions back into the original equation.c. For the
Quadratic Formula problem, be sure that you use
readable notation while you are working the
computational steps. Refer to Inserting Math
Symbols for guidance with formatting.d. Present your
final solutions as decimal approximations carried out

to the third decimal place. Due to the nature of these


solutions, no check is required.e. Incorporate the
following four math vocabulary words into your
discussion. Use bold font to emphasize the words in
your writing (Do not write definitions for the
words; use them appropriately in sentences
describing your math work.): Quadratic formula
Factoring Completing the square

step. A discussion of the applicability of functions to
the real world, based upon your reading of Chapter
11 ofElementary and Intermediate Algebra. Be sure
to use specific examples, a brief discussion of why
your examples are important, and to cite your
sources. Week 5 DQ Relations and Functions. In
this discussion, you will be assigned two equations
with which you will then do a variety of math work
having to do with mathematical functions. Read the
following instructions in order and view the example
to complete this discussion:a. Find your two
equations in the list below based on the last letter of
your last name.There are many ways to go about
solving math problems. For this assignment you will

be required to do some work that will not be included


in the discussion. First, you need to graph your
functions so you can clearly describe the graphs in
your discussion. Your graph itself is not required in
your post, although the discussion of the graph is
required. Make sure you have at least five points for
each equation to graph. Show all math work for
finding the points.b. Specifically mention any key
points on the graphs, including intercepts, vertex, or
start/end points. (Points with decimal values need
not be listed, as they might be found in a square root
function. Stick to integer value points.)c. Discuss the
general shape and location of each of your graphs.d.

equations. Write them in interval notation.e. State
whether each of the equations is a function or not
giving your reasons for the answer.f. Select one of
your graphs and assume it has been shifted three
units upward and four units to the left. Discuss how

this transformation affects the equation by rewriting


the equation to incorporate those numbers.g.
