What question 4 or 5?oh....
The simplest form of the given expression 
is 
<u>Solution:</u>
Given, expression is 3 11/12 – 1 4/12 
We have to find the simplest form of the value derived from the given expression.
Now, first let us solve the given equation.
converting mixed fractions to improper fractions.
As there are no common terms to cancel it is in lowest form.
Hence, the lowest form of the given expression is
A numerical factor<span> of a </span>term<span> is any number that can be factored out of the coefficient.</span>
The sum of the left side of these two equations is equal to the same of the right side is these two equations
4x+8y + (-4x+2y) = 20 + 30
10y =50 ( x is eliminated)
y=5
Take this into the second equation
-4x +2y = 30
-4x + 2*5 = 30
x=-5
So x=-5
y=5
Create an equation using the formula for area of a rectangle; area = width * length
(X + 2)(x + 3) = 600
Multiply the dimensions.
X^2 + 3x + 2x +6 = 600, or simplified x^2 +5x + 6 = 600.
Subtract 600 to get the following:
X^2 + 5x - 594 = 0
Factor by x:
(X - 22)(x + 27) = 0
Solve for x
X - 22 = 0
X = 22.
Use the POSITIVE VALUE of x as you can’t have a negative area for a room.
Then substitute 22 for x to get the dimensions
(22+ 2) or 24 for length and (22+3) or 25 for width.
