[tex]$\frac{4}{x(x+2)}=\frac{4}{x^2+2x}[/tex]

Solution:

Given expression:

[tex]$\frac{4}{x(x+2)}[/tex]

To simplify the given rational expression:

[tex]$\frac{4}{x(x+2)}[/tex]

Using exponent rule: [tex]a^m\cdot a^n = a^{m+n}[/tex]

[tex]$\frac{4}{x(x+2)}=\frac{4}{x^{1+1}+2x}[/tex]

             [tex]$=\frac{4}{x^2+2x}[/tex]

Hence the rational expression is simplified.

[tex]$\frac{4}{x(x+2)}=\frac{4}{x^2+2x}[/tex]
