Answer: 21.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Rounding 15.89: Find the number in the tenth place 8 and look one place to the right for the rounding digit 9 . Round up if this number is greater than or equal to 5 and round down if it is less than 5 . = 15.9

Rounding 5.557: Find the number in the tenth place 5 and look one place to the right for the rounding digit 5 . Round up if this number is greater than or equal to 5 and round down if it is less than 5 . = 5.6

Sum up 15.9+5.6 and get 21.5

Round each number up or down ( 15.89 to 15.9 and 5.557 to 5.6) and the add. the rounded answer would be 21.5.

In Mrs Phillips math class the ratio of boys to girls is 4 to 2. If there are 51 girls in math class, how many boys are there?

maksim [4K]

So for every two girls, there's four boys. There are twice as many boys than girls, so the number of girls • 2 = your answer.

51 • 2 = 102

What number fills in the blank to complete the factorization of 3x + 24?

nikdorinn [45]

<em>Answer</em>

<em>Explanation</em>

Let's start by factoring the expression; 3x + 24.

3 is common in both term. So, factor it out.

3x + 24 = 3(x + 8)

The number that would fill in the blank to complete the factorization of 3x+24 is 3.

A common assumption in modeling drug assimilation is that the blood volume in a person is a single compartment that behaves like

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

a) $\mathbf{\dfrac{dx}{dt} = 30 - 0.015 x}$

b) $\mathbf{x = 2000 - 2000e^{-0.015t}}$

c) the steady state mass of the drug is 2000 mg

d) t ≅ 153.51 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

At time t= 0

an intravenous line is inserted into a vein (into the tank) that carries a drug solution with a concentration of 500

The inflow rate is 0.06 L/min.

Assume the drug is quickly mixed thoroughly in the blood and that the volume of blood remains constant.

The objective of the question is to calculate the following :

a) Write an initial value problem that models the mass of the drug in the blood for t ≥ 0.

From above information given :

$Rate _{(in)}= 500 \ mg/L \times 0.06 \ L/min = 30 mg/min$

$Rate _{(out)}=\dfrac{x}{4} \ mg/L \times 0.06 \ L/min = 0.015x \ mg/min$

Therefore;

$\dfrac{dx}{dt} = Rate_{(in)} - Rate_{(out)}$

with respect to x(0) = 0

$\mathbf{\dfrac{dx}{dt} = 30 - 0.015 x}$

b) Solve the initial value problem and graph both the mass of the drug and the concentration of the drug.

$\dfrac{dx}{dt} = -0.015(x - 2000)$

$\dfrac{dx}{(x - 2000)} = -0.015 \times dt$

By Using Integration Method:

$ln(x - 2000) = -0.015t + C$

$x -2000 = Ce^{(-0.015t)$

$x = 2000 + Ce^{(-0.015t)}$

However; if x(0) = 0 ;

Then

C = -2000

Therefore

$\mathbf{x = 2000 - 2000e^{-0.015t}}$

c) What is the steady-state mass of the drug in the blood?

the steady-state mass of the drug in the blood when t = infinity

$\mathbf{x = 2000 - 2000e^{-0.015 \times \infty }}$

x = 2000 - 0

x = 2000

Thus; the steady state mass of the drug is 2000 mg

d) After how many minutes does the drug mass reach 90% of its stead-state level?

After 90% of its steady state level; the mas of the drug is 90% × 2000

= 0.9 × 2000

= 1800

Hence;

$\mathbf{1800 = 2000 - 2000e^{(-0.015t)}}$

$0.1 = e^{(-0.015t)$

$ln(0.1) = -0.015t$

$t = -\dfrac{In(0.1)}{0.015}$

t = 153.5056729

t ≅ 153.51 minutes
