Answer:

(x - 1)(x + 1)(x + 3).

Step-by-step explanation:

x^3 + 3x^2 - x - 3 Factor by grouping:

= x^2(x + 3) - 1(x + 3) x+3 is common .

= (x^2 - 1)(x + 3) x^2 - 1 is the difference of 2 squares.

= (x - 1)(x + 1)(x + 3).

Soon after taking an aspirin, a patient has absorbed 320 mg of the drug. after 3 hours, only 40 mg remain. find an exponential m

Anastaziya [24]

The equation will be of the form:
$A(t)= A_{0} e^{rt}$
where A is the amount after t hours, and r is the decay constant.
To find the value of r, we plug the given values into the equation, giving:
$40=320e^{3r}$
Rearranging and taking natural logs of both sides, we get:
$ln\ 0.125=3r$
$r=\frac{ln\ 0.125}{3}=-0.693$
The required model is:
$A=A _{0} e^{-0.693t}$
