A sample of a radioactive isotope had an initial mass of 620 mg in the year 2003 and decays exponentially over time. A
measurement in the year 2005 found that the sample's mass
had decayed to 390 mg. What would be the expected mass of
the sample in the year 2010, to the nearest whole number?

p(x)= 8 x³ - 36 x² + 54 x - 27

q(x) = 2 x -3

you can check your mistake and then you can choose the correct option.

dividend =   8 x³ - 36 x² + 54 x - 27

divisor = 2 x -3

if you want to find quotient, proceed as follows

q(x)= 0

2 x - 3=0

x =

now , i have used division method , to find quotient and remainder
