College Algebra

Chapter 1/Section 7


The quotient of two polynomial functions is called a rational expression.


If f(x) and g(x) are polynomial functions, then

f(x)/g(x) is a rational expression. A rational expression is a fraction..


If f(x) = x/(x - 1), then f(x) is a rational expression in one variable.


If g(x) = (xy)^2/(x - y)^3, then g(x) is a rational expression in two variables.


Is any of this right?


Question


Is there such a thing as a rational expression in more than two variables? If so, can you give two examples?


Thank you.
