This document outlines a lesson plan on patterns and algebra 1 that focuses on factoring algebraic expressions and operations on rational expressions. It introduces various factoring techniques like common monomial factoring, difference of squares, and grouping. It also provides examples of applying these techniques to factor polynomials. The document further discusses rational expressions, including definitions and how to simplify, add, subtract, multiply and divide rational expressions. Sample problems are provided to demonstrate non-routine factoring techniques.

Why is Factoring
Polynomials an
important Skill?
7
It helps us
understand more
about our
equations
We rewrite our
polynomials in
simpler form
We yield a lot of
information when we
apply the principles of
factoring to equations

When can
factoring a
polynomial be
performed?
When a polynomial is
expressed as the product
of polynomials, each of
which has rational
coefficients.
11. PATTERNS and ALGEBRA 1
11
When do we say
that a polynomial
is in its factored
form?
A polynomial is
completely
factored if none
of its factors can
be factored.
Not all polynomials
can be written in
factored form.

Definition of Rational Expression
If 𝑃 𝑥 and 𝑄 𝑥 are polynomials and 𝑄 𝑥 ≠ 0,
then
𝑃(𝑥)
𝑄(𝑥)
is a rational expression in x where 𝑃 𝑥 and
𝑄 𝑥 are the numerator and denominator, respectively
of the expression.

A Linear Equation is an equation in which the highest
power of the variable is always 1 and is also called as first
degree equation.
The graph of linear equation is always a straight line.
