The simplified rational expression is (y - 3)/(y + 3). Where y ≠ -3.
<h3>How to simplify a rational expression?</h3>A rational expression is in the p/q form. Where p and q are polynomial functions.
To simplify this rational equation,
- Factorize the polynomials in both numerator and denomiantor.
- Cancel out common factors if any.
- If the denominator and the numerator have no common factors except 1, then that is said to be the simplest form of the given rational expression.
The given rational equation is
Factorizing the expression in the numerator:
y² - 12y + 27 = y² - 9y - 3y + 27
⇒ y(y - 9) - 3(y - 9)
⇒ (y - 3)(y - 9)
Factorizing the expression in the denominator:
y² - 6y - 27 = y² - 9y + 3y - 27
⇒ y(y - 9) + 3(y - 9)
⇒ (y + 3)(y - 9)
Since they have (y - 9) as the common factor, we can simplify,
⇒ (y - 3)/(y + 3) where y ≠ -3(denomiantor)
Here there are no more common factors except 1; this is the simplest form of the given rational expression.

Answers:
A = 120
b = 45.0
c = 33.2
Side Note: only one triangle is possible
See attached for a visual. I used GeoGebra to draw the triangle.
-------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------
Explanation:
We are given the following information
B = 35
C = 25
a = 68
We need to find the following
A, b, c
where the lower case letters represent the side lengths; the upper case letters are the angles. The angles are opposite their corresponding sides. For instance, side lowercase b is opposite angle uppercase B. The other letters are positioned the same way.
-----------------------
First use the idea that for any triangle, the three angles (A,B,C) must add to 180 degrees
A+B+C = 180
Replace B and C with 35 and 25. Solve for angle A
A+35+25 = 180
A+60 = 180
A+60-60 = 180-60
A = 120
Now that we know the three angles A = 120, B = 35, C = 25, we can find the missing sides 'b' and 'c'
-----------------------
We will use the law of sines to find side b
sin(A)/a = sin(B)/b
sin(120)/68 = sin(35)/b
b*sin(120) = 68*sin(35) <<--- cross multiply
b = 68*sin(35)/sin(120)
b = 45.037013350222 <<--- use a calculator; this value is approximate
b = 45.0 <<--- round to the nearest tenth
-----------------------
Do the same for side c
sin(A)/a = sin(C)/c
sin(120)/68 = sin(25)/c
c*sin(120) = 68*sin(25) <<--- cross multiply
c = 68*sin(25)/sin(120)
c = 33.1838323365404 <<--- use a calculator; this value is approximate
c = 33.2 <<--- round to the nearest tenth
A = 120
b = 45.0
c = 33.2
