If you mean lowest terms as in fully simplified, then your fraction "2/11" is already in lowest terms.
Lowest terms mean that your numerator and denominator have no common factors apart from 1.
2 and 11 don't have any common factors, therefore 2/11 is in lowest terms already.
Complete question :
A 12-foot by 15-foot patio is increased by placing a stone border around the patio. The width of the border is the same all around the patio.The perimeter of the patio after it is expanded is 74 feet. The equation which represents x, the width of the border is 2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74. What is the width of the border?
1) 2 1/2 feet
2) 3 feet
4) 5 feet
5) 8 1/2 feet
Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for X in the perimeter equation :
2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74
Open the bracket
2[(12 + 2x + 15 + 2x)] = 74
2(27 + 4x) = 74
54 + 8x = 74
8x = 74 - 54
8x = 20
x = 20/8
x = 2.5
Hence, width fo border = 2.5

Once you get rid of the absolute value bars the negative sign is still outside of them making 6 negative again. Hope this helped! :P
Answer:
Quotient ( x² -4x +10)
Reminder -2
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to consider the polynomial function g(x) = x³ - 3x² + 6x + 8
Now, we have to divide g(x) by (x+1)
Let us arrange the terms of g(x) to get (x+1) as common.
x³ - 3x² + 6x + 8
= x³ +x² -4x² -4x +10x +10 -2
= x² (x +1) -4x (x +1) +10 (x +1) -2
= (x +1)( x² -4x +10) -2
Hence, if we divide g(x) by (x +1) then the quotient will be ( x² -4x +10) and the reminder will be -2. (Answer)
Let
Event A = rolling a 4 on a single die
Event B = rolling a number divisible by 3 (3 or 6) on a single die
There are three outcomes possible in total if either event A happens or event B happens. This is out of six outcomes total.
Divide the values and reduce: 3/6 = 1/2
Final Answer: Choice D) 1/2
