The video tutorial explains how to find the least common multiple (LCM) of binomials and apply the distributive property to combine rational expressions. It covers examples of finding the LCM by multiplying denominators and discusses the importance of common denominators. The tutorial also demonstrates combining like terms and factoring, while highlighting restrictions on denominators to avoid division by zero.

What is the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators 4 and 3?

• 7

• 9

• 12

• 1

When multiplying the numerators after finding a common denominator, which property is applied?

• Identity Property

• Commutative Property

• Distributive Property

• Associative Property

What is the result of combining like terms in the expression 2x^2 + 9x - 6x?

• 2x^2 - 3x

• 2x^2 + 3x

• 2x^2 + 15x

• 2x^2 + 9x

Why is it important to identify restrictions in rational expressions?

• To simplify the expression

• To apply the distributive property

• To avoid undefined expressions

• To find the LCM

Which value of x would make the expression with denominator (x - 3)(x + 1) undefined?

• x = 0

• x = 3

• x = 1

• x = -3
