Where can i find some worked out practice problems ?
Factorize - To represent a number, matrix or polynomial as a product of factors
awholenumber said:Thanks , but
Its not opening in my place , i had to use a web proxy to see that website . don't know why it is like that .
The link you posted here is about factoring, not about solving rational equations. Chapter 7 in your link is about rational equations and rational expressions, more in line with what you asked about.awholenumber said:I also found something here
Factoring and Solving by Factoring

Factoring in rational equations is the process of breaking down a rational expression into simpler forms. This is done by finding common factors in both the numerator and denominator and canceling them out, which results in a simplified form of the expression.
Factoring is important in solving rational equations because it allows us to simplify complex expressions and make them easier to work with. This can also help us identify any restrictions on the variable in the rational expression.
You should use factoring in rational equations when you are trying to simplify or solve an equation that contains fractions or rational expressions. This can make the problem easier to solve and can also help you identify the solutions or restrictions on the variable.
Sure, let's say we have the rational expression (x^2-4)/(x^2+3x). We can factor the numerator and denominator to get [(x+2)(x-2)]/[(x+3)x]. Then, we can cancel out the common factor of (x+2) and simplify the expression to (x-2)/(x+3).
There are many resources available online for practice problems on factoring rational equations. You can search for worksheets or practice quizzes, or you can find videos and tutorials that provide step-by-step solutions to problems. Your textbook or class notes may also have practice problems for you to work on.
