Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the zeros of a polynomial, say x = a, x = b, x = c

Then (x - a), (x - b), (x - c) are it's factors

and the polynomial is the product of the factors

here x = 4, x = - 1, x = 6, hence

(x - 4), (x + 1) and (x - 6) are the factors

f(x) = a(x - 4)(x + 1)(x - 6) ← a is a multiplier

let a = 1, then expanding the first pair of factors

f(x) = (x² - 3x - 4)(x - 6) ← expand out the factors

= x³ - 3x² - 4x - 6x² + 18x + 24 ← collect like terms

= x³ - 9x² + 14x + 24

Sidana [21]

The answer is 16 ft because 6 ft tall over 4 feet 6 inches (4.5) is equal to x (tree's height) over 12 ft. You cross multiple and get 72 = 4.5x then you take 72 and divide by 4.5 to get the tree's height

$\frac{6}{4.5} = \frac{x}{12}$

Answer:

$\left(\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} \right)_{min} \approx 0.659$ and $\left(\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} \right)_{max} \approx 0.661$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the isotope decay is:

$\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} = e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }$

14-Carbon has a half-life of 5568 years, the time constant of the isotope is:

$\tau = \frac{5568\,years}{\ln 2}$

$\tau \approx 8032.926\,years$

The decay time is:

$t = 1315\,years + 2007\,years \pm 13\,years$ (There is no a year 0 in chronology).

$t = 3335 \pm 13\,years$

Lastly, the relative amount is estimated by direct substitution:

$\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} = e^{-\frac{3335\,years}{8032.926\,years} }\cdot e^{\mp\frac{13\,years}{8032.926\,years} }$

$\left(\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} \right)_{min} = e^{-\frac{3335\,years}{8032.926\,years} }\cdot e^{-\frac{13\,years}{8032.926\,years} }$

$\left(\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} \right)_{min} \approx 0.659$

$\left(\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} \right)_{max} = e^{-\frac{3335\,years}{8032.926\,years} }\cdot e^{\frac{13\,years}{8032.926\,years} }$

$\left(\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} \right)_{max} \approx 0.661$
