Answer:

y = (4x - 3)(3x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factorization is the process of taking like terms out of number such that one can rewrite an expression by its factors, or as the products of serval smaller expressions.

The first step to factoring an equation is to rewrite the linear term as the sum or difference of two other linear terms. One must do this in such as way that it shares a common factor with one of the other terms in the expression.

$12x^2 -x - 6$

$12x^2 -9x + 8x - 6$

Take out the common factor,

$3x(4x-3)+2(4x-3)$

Factor,

$(3x+2)(4x-3)$

Answer:

The highest total cholesterol level a man in this 35–44 age group can have and be in the lowest 10% is 160.59 milligrams per deciliter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 210, \sigma = 38.6$
