Algebra 1B - Chapter 11 HW: Rational Functions


​Week of 03-20-2017
We are going to start our new unit with a quick detour: 
Arithmetic vs Geometric Sequences - Day 1
    Defining arithmetic and geometric sequences.
    Defining functions and sequences recursively.
    Practice: Finish page 3 and 4 of packet. Skip #3.
​            We did not do page 1 and 2.

Arithmetic vs Geometric Sequences - Day 2
    Recognizing arithmetic and geometric sequences. 
    Practice with recursive definitions of functions. 
​    Practice: #1-9 of the "Problem Set" portion. 
        For the tables, I want to know: 
        1) Whether they are arithmetic or geometric or neither
        2) A recursive equation for the function
        3) An explicit equation (normal y=) for the function

​DESMOS Marble Slide for Rational Functions
​
    You will have a class code when you get to class.
    If you were absent during class, go through at least slide 20 (challenge #4).
​    2nd pd class code: P9DDU
​    4th pd class code:  2UPMZ
Discuss what we found out about the structure of rational functions from Marble slides and then:
