9.2 Graphing Simple Rational Functions
p. 540What is the general form of a rational function?
What does the h & k tell you?What does the graph of a hyperbola look like?What does the graph of ax+b/cx+d tell you?
What information does the domain & range tell you?
Rational Function
• A function of the form
where p(x) & q(x) are polynomials and q(x)≠0.

Hyperbola
• A type of rational function.
• Has 1 vertical asymptote and 1 horizontal asymptote.
• Has 2 parts called branches. (blue parts) They are symmetrical.
We’ll discuss 2 different forms.
x=0
y=0
Hyperbola (continued)Hyperbola (continued)
• One form:
• Has 2 asymptotes: x=h (vert.) and y=k (horiz.)
• Graph 2 points on either side of the vertical asymptote.
• Draw the branches.

Hyperbola (continued)
• Second form:
• Vertical asymptote: Set the denominator equal to 0 and solve for x.
• Horizontal asymptote:
• Graph 2 points on either side of the vertical asymptote. Draw the 2 branches.

• What is the general form of a rational function?
• What does the h & k tell you?
Asymptotes are x = h, y = k• What does the graph of a hyperbola look like?
Two symmetrical branches in opposite quadrants.• What does the graph of ax+b/cx+d tell you?
cx+d = 0 is the vertical asymptote and y = a/c is the horizontal asymptote
• What information does the domain & range tell you?
Domain tells what numbers can be used for x and the range is the y numbers when put into the equation.
