give me an independent practice assignment, 34 problems, rational expressions of the form (x+-a)(x+-b)/(x+-a)(x+-b), where some factors cancel others do not. this assignment is only the independent practice.
This resource focuses on simplifying rational expressions, guiding students through a systematic process to identify and cancel common factors in both the numerator and denominator. It outlines a 3-step procedure that includes factoring the expressions completely, identifying common factors, and canceling these factors to simplify the equations. The document provides numerous examples and practice problems for students to enhance their understanding and skills of rational expression simplification. Additionally, it includes instructions for simplifying both mixed expressions and advanced multi-factor rational expressions, encouraging students to show their work and self-check for any remaining common factors.
