Given :
The percent of concentration of a certain drug in the bloodstream x hours after the drug is administered is given by .
To Find :
Find the time at which the concentration is a maximum. b. Find the maximum concentration.
Solution :
For maximum value of x, K'(x) = 0.
Since, time cannot be negative, so ignoring x = -3 .
Putting value of x = 3, we get, K(3) = 15/( 9 + 9) = 5/6
Therefore, maximum value drug in bloodstream is 5/6 at time x = 3 units.
Hence, this is the required solution.
Given:
John had to pay a combined electric and gas bill $150.
The electric portion of the bill was $90.
To find:
The ratio of money spent on electric to that on gas.
Solution:
Let x be the amount of gas bill.
The electric portion of the bill was $90 and John had to pay a combined electric and gas bill $150. So,
The gas portion of the bill was $60.
The ratio of money spent on electric to that on gas is:
Therefore, the ratio of money spent on electric to that on gas is 3:2.
