Question

Prove that every rational function is continuous.

✓

Answer

Recall that every rational function f is given by
$f(x)=\frac{p(x)}{q(x)}, q(x) \neq 0$
where p and q are polynomial functions. The domain of f is all real numbers except points at which q is zero. Since polynomial functions are continuous, f is continuous
