A polygon is plane<span> shape with <em><u>straight</u></em> sides. Therefore, a pentagon is a polygon!</span>
Expand by multiplying out:
14-15t + 36 = 1 -20t -1,
Because of the minus before the bracket, it changes the sign inside the bracket
-15t + 20t = 1-1-14-36 Rearranging the ts on one side and the numbers on other
side.
5t = -50 Divide both sides by 5.
t = -50/5
t = -10.
To model half-life, use the formula
