Answer:

6(x - 3)(x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make this easier by taking a factor of 6 out of the quadratic:

6(x^2 - 7x + 12)

Now, which two numbers multiply to 12 and sum to -7?

-3 and -4.

6(x - 3)(x - 4) is therefore the answer.

Graph the line that represents a proportional relationship between y and x where the unit rate of change of y with respect to x

Pachacha [2.7K]

The graph of a proportional relationship passes through the origin, and as a constant slope

The given parameter is:

Proportionality constant (k) = 10/7

<h3>Condition for a proportional relationship</h3>

For a proportional relationship, the equation of the graph is represented as:

$y = kx$

Substitute 10/7 for k

$y = \frac{10}7x$

See attachment for the graph of the proportional relationship

Suppose a laboratory has a 26-gram sample of polonium-210.The half-life of polonium-210 is about days. a.How many half-lives of

vovangra [49]

Answer:

a) Two half lives, b) $m(276) = 6.526\,g$

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The polonium-210 has a half life of 138.4 days. Therefore, 1.994 half lives have past.

b) Mass decay is described by the following exponential model:

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

The time constant for the isotope is:

$\tau = \frac{138.4\,days}{\ln 2}$

$\tau = 199.669\,days$

The mass of the isotope after 276 days is:

$m(276) = (26\,g)\cdot e^{-\frac{276\,days}{199.669\,days} }$

$m(276) = 6.526\,g$
