Question 2:
What Slope
Should the
Function
Have at x =
?
The slope is determined by the derivative of a function The derivative of a rational function is
with
Asymptotically
From this it follows that
if n < m, R'( ) = 0
●
if n = m, R'( ) = 0
●
if n = m +1, R'( ) = an/bm
●
if n > m + 1, R'( ) =
●
Conversely, if the fitted function f(x) is such that
f'( ) = 0, this implies n m
●
f'( ) = constant, this implies n = m + 1
●
f'( ) = , this implies n > m + 1

Question 3:
How Many
Times Should
the Function
Equal Zero
for Finite ?
For fintite x, R(x) = 0 only when the numerator polynomial, Pn, equals zero.
The numerator polynomial, and thus R(x) as well, can have between zero and n real roots Thus, for a given n, the number of real roots of R(x) is less than or equal to n.
Conversely, if the fitted function f(x) is such that, for finite x, the number of times f(x) = 0 is k3,
then n is greater than or equal to k3. 4.8.1.2.11 Determining m and n for Rational Function Models

Trang 8Question 4:
How Many
Times Should
the Slope
Equal Zero
for Finite ?
The derivative function, R'(x), of the rational function will equal zero when the numerator
polynomial equals zero The number of real roots of a polynomial is between zero and the degree
of the polynomial.
For n not equal to m, the numerator polynomial of R'(x) has order n+m-1 For n equal to m, the numerator polynomial of R'(x) has order n+m-2.
From this it follows that
if n m, the number of real roots of R'(x), k4, n+m-1.
●
if n = m, the number of real roots of R'(x), k4, is n+m-2.
●
Conversely, if the fitted function f(x) is such that, for finite x and n m, the number of times f'(x)
= 0 is k4, then n+m-1 is k4 Similarly, if the fitted function f(x) is such that, for finite x and n =
m, the number of times f'(x) = 0 is k4, then n+m-2 k4.

Determing m
and n
The goal is to go from a sample data set to a specific rational function The graphs below summarize some common shapes that rational functions can have and shows the admissible
values and the simplest case for n and m We typically start with the simplest case If the model
validation indicates an inadequate model, we then try other rational functions in the admissible region.
