Answer:

f(x) = 3x² - 15x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(x) has roots x = a and x = b, then

(x - a) and (x - b) are the factors

f(x) is then the product of the factors

f(x) = a(x - a)(x - b) ← where a is a multiplier

Given roots are x = 4 and x = 1, then

(x - 4) and (x - 1) are the factors

With a = 3, then

f(x) = 3(x - 4)(x - 1) ← expand factors using FOIL

     = 3(x² - 5x + 4) ← distribute

     = 3x² - 15x + 12

Answer:

  it is NOT possible

Step-by-step explanation:

A number is divisible by 6 if it is even and divisible by 3. It is divisible by 3 if the sum of digits is divisible by 3.

The sum of digits of 152 is 1+5+2 = 8, which is not divisible by 3, so 152 is not divisible by 6.
