82
The graph of
y= (x^2 + bx + c)/(x-d)
is a straight line with a point of discontinuity at (2,5). What is the value of c
1) x=2 is the restriction so the bottom must me (x-2)
2) since it’s a discontinuity something has to cancel out for the expression to be simplified so one of the top factors is (x-2)
3) cancel out the (x-2) on the top and bottom and you’re left with y=(x-a)
4) y=5 and x=2 so plug those values in to solve for a, you get 3, which means the other factor is (x+3)
5) foil the top factors out so you have it in the correct form, c=(-6)
83

Sub the restricted c value into the simplified function
84

86
How to determine an equation from the graph of a rational function (graph with swoopy lines)
1) determine any discontinuities (POD or vert asymptote) and find bottom factor(s) from that, can also find top factor if stuff has to cancel
2) determine horizontal asymptotes and make sure equation lies up with that corresponding situation
3) if there are x intercepts you can find a factor in the numerator
4) find a point on the graph and sub in those x and y values to find the coefficient
87
What does the x intercept tell us when we’re finding an equation from a graph
A factor in the numerator
88
How to find the inverse of a rational function
1) swap x and y
