Answer:
The hourly decay rate is of 1.25%, so the hourly rate of change is of -1.25%.
The function to represent the mass of the sample after t days is 
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential equation of decay:
The exponential equation for the amount of a substance is given by:
In which A(0) is the initial amount and r is the decay rate, as a decimal.
Hourly rate of change:
Decreases 26% by day. A day has 24 hours. This means that 
; We use this to find r.
![\sqrt[24]{(1-r)^{24}} = \sqrt[24]{0.74}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B24%5D%7B%281-r%29%5E%7B24%7D%7D%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B24%5D%7B0.74%7D)
The hourly decay rate is of 1.25%, so the hourly rate of change is of -1.25%.
Starts out with 810 grams of Element X
This means that 
Element X is a radioactive isotope such that its mass decreases by 26% every day.
This means that we use, for this equation, r = 0.26.
The equation is:
The function to represent the mass of the sample after t days is
So we have
h=hits
m=miss
h+m=10
gain 5 for every hit and lose 3 for every miss
so 5 times number of hit=points from hit
-3 times number of miss=points deducted from miss
add
5h-3m=18
so we have the equations
h+m=10
5h-3m=18
multiply first equation by 3
3h+3m=30
add to first equatio
3h+3m=30
<u>5h-3m=18 +</u>
8h+0m=48
8h=48
divide by 8
h=6
subsitute
h+m=10
6+m=10
subtract 6
m=4
6 hits
4 miss

Answer:
(x - 2)(5x + 3) = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
5x² - 7x - 6 = 0
Consider the factors of the product of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.
product = 5 × - 6 = - 30 and sum = - 7
The factors are - 10 and + 3
Use these factors to split the x- term
5x² - 10x + 3x - 6 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
5x(x - 2) + 3(x - 2) = 0 ← factor out (x - 2) from each term
(x - 2)(5x - 3) = 0 ← in factored form
