What is called when the denominator is zero in a rational function?
The function is not defined at any values at which the denominator is zero.
Why can't the denominators of rational expressions be zero How can we find the domain of a rational function?
Rational expressions are fractions and are therefore undefined if the denominator is zero; the domain of a rational function is all real numbers except those that make the denominator of the related rational expression equal to 0. If a denominator contains variables, set it equal to zero and solve.
What does an undefined graph look like?
An undefined graph typically occurs when there is a division by zero in a mathematical equation, resulting in an infinite or undefined value. In a graph, this would manifest as a vertical line or asymptote where the function approaches infinity or negative infinity. This can happen, for example, when plotting the graph of a rational function where the denominator equals zero at a certain point.
What can the denominator of a rational expression never equal?
It cannot be zero.
A rational expression is undefined whenever its denominator is zero-?
True

When the denominator is zero in a rational function what is that called?
Undefined.

How do you find the domain of a rational function?
The domain of a rational function is the whole of the real numbers except those points where the denominator of the rational function, simplified if possible, is zero.
In rational functions what happens when w gets close to zero?
The answer depends on what w represents. If w is the denominator of the rational function then as w gets close to zero, the rational function tends toward plus or minus infinity - depending on the signs of the dominant terms in the numerator and denominator.
What is a rational function graph?
The Equation of a Rational Function has the Form,... f(x) = g(x)/h(x) where h(x) is not equal to zero. We will use a given Rational Function as an Example to graph showing the Vertical and Horizontal Asymptotes, and also the Hole in the Graph of that Function, if they exist. Let the Rational Function be,... f(x) = (x-2)/(x² - 5x + 6). f(x) = (x-2)/[(x-2)(x-3)]. Now if the Denominator (x-2)(x-3) = 0, then the Rational function will be Undefined, that is, the case of Division by Zero (0). So, in the Rational Function f(x) = (x-2)/[(x-2)(x-3)], we see that at x=2 or x=3, the Denominator is equal to Zero (0). But at x=3, we notice that the Numerator is equal to ( 1 ), that is, f(3) = 1/0, hence a Vertical Asymptote at x = 3. But at x=2, we have f(2) = 0/0, 'meaningless'. There is a Hole in the Graph at x = 2.

Why is the denominator set to zero to graph a rational expression?
When the denominator is equal to zero, the expression is undefined. Close to those places, the expression tends towards plus infinity, or minus infinity. In other words, setting the denominator to zero will tell you where there are vertical asymptotes.
What is the equation of the asymptote of the graph of?
To determine the equation of the asymptote of a graph, you typically need to analyze the function's behavior as it approaches certain values (often infinity) or points of discontinuity. For rational functions, vertical asymptotes occur where the denominator equals zero, while horizontal asymptotes can be found by comparing the degrees of the numerator and denominator. If you provide a specific function, I can give you its asymptote equations.
What is the zero of a function and how does it relate to the functions graph?
A zero of a function is a point at which the value of the function is zero. If you graph the function, it is a point at which the graph touches the x-axis.
What rational functions will have a hole at x2?
A rational function is undefined - you might say that it "has a hole" - at any point where the denominator is zero. Assuming you mean "... hole at x = 2", any rational function which has the factor (x-2) in its denominator will have a hole at x = 2.
Is zero over an integer denominator always rational?
Yes
