Rational Function: 3rd Degree / 2nd Degree
Here's a graphing program that shows the behavior of a rational function made up of a third degree polynomial divided by a second degree polynomial. These polynomials are presented in factored form in the following function definition:
Below is a program that graphs the above function. A link to instructions is follows the program.
The rational function graphing programs in this section all work about the same. Click here for an explanation.
