MAFS.912.A-APR.4.7Archived Standard

Understand that rational expressions form a system analogous to the rational numbers, closed under addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division by a nonzero rational expression; add, subtract, multiply, and divide rational expressions.
General Information
Subject Area: Mathematics
Grade: 912
Domain-Subdomain: Algebra: Arithmetic with Polynomials & Rational Expressions
Cluster: Level 2: Basic Application of Skills & Concepts
Cluster: Rewrite rational expressions. (Algebra 2 - Supporting Cluster) -

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
