    Section 7.6 talks about solving rational inequalities, which is useful in calculus if you need to know where a function is increasing or decreasing.  Chapter 8 covers radicals and fractional exponents. Section 8.1 and 8.2 explain how to simplify radical expressions.  In 8.3, you go back and forth between radicals and exponents, as well as simplifying exponential expressions involving fractions.

    Here are two videos on rational inequalities.  The first video may be hard to understand, so here is a second video with a different speaker.  Here are videos on simplifying roots, simplifying radical expressions part 1, and part 2,
