Step-by-step explanation:

x2 - 7x + 12

Finding factors of 12

x2 - 4x - 3x + 12

x(x - 4) - 3(x - 4)

(x-4) (x-3) are the factors

Option C is the correct answer

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{DH}{HE}=\frac{18}{36}=\frac{1}{2}$

$\text{This means that } DH=\frac{1}{2}HE$

and thus the given segments are parallel by the converse of the triangle proportionality theorem.

Plutonium-240 decays according to the function L where o

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

$\boxed{\textbf{1700 yr}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$-\dfrac{\text{d}L}{\text{d}t} = kL\\\\\dfrac{dL}{L}=-kdt\\\\\ln L = -kt + C\\\text{At t = 0, L = L$_{0}$, so C = $\ln L_{0}$}\\\ln L = -kt + \ln L_{0}\\\ln L_{0} - \ln L = kt\\\\\ln \dfrac{L_{0}}{L} =kt$

Data:

L₀ = 24 g

L = 20 g

k = 0.000 11 yr⁻¹

Calculation:

$\ln \dfrac{24}{20} =0.000 11t\\\\\ln 1.2 = 0.000 11t\\\\0.1823 = 0.000 11t\\\\t = \dfrac{0.1823}{0.000 11} = \textbf{1700 yr}\\\\\text{It will take } \boxed{\textbf{1700 yr}}\text{ for the polonium to decay to 20 g}$
