Clara is taking a medicine for a common cold. Her body metabolizes the medicine over a certain time interval. The table below sh

ows the amount of medicine f(t), in mg, that was present in Clara's body after time t.
t (hours) 1 2 3 4 5
f(t) (mg) 236.5 223.73 211.65 200.22 189.41


Heidi was administered 300 mg of the same medicine. The amount of medicine in her body f(t) after time t is shown by the equation below.

(t) = 300(0.946)t

1) Let's write the data of Clara's table just to have them ready to compare

t (hours)          1               2               3             4               5
f(t) (mg)         236.5    223.73      211.65     200.22       189.41
Change(mg)     -          -12.77       -12.05     -11.43      -10.81

2) Now calculate the amount of medicine as per Heide's formula, 300(0.946)^t:

 t (hours)             1             2                 3             4               5
f(t) (mg)           283.8    268.48         253.98     240.26      227.29
Change (mg)                 -15.12          -14.5     -13.72          -12.97

Now you can compare the data and realize that the rate of change of Heide is greater than the rate of change of Clara, meaning that Heide eliminates the medicine faster than Clara.

Where do you find a vertical shift in the exponential parent function?
Montano1993 [528]

For the given expressions we will have:

y = exp(x - 4)   →we have a shift of 4 units to the right.

y = exp (x +9)  → we have a shift of 9 units to the left.

y = exp(x) + 7 → we have a shift of 7 units up.

y = exp(x) - 6  → we have a shift of 6 units down.

<h3>How to work with vertical and horizontal shifts?</h3>

Remember that the shifts work as follows.

For a function f(x), we define a vertical shift of N units as:

g(x) = f(x) + N

  • If N > 0, the shift is upwards.
  • If N < 0, the shift is downwards.

For a function f(x), we define a horizontal shift of N units as:

g(x) = f(x + N)

  • If N > 0, the shift is to the left.
  • If N < 0, the shift is to the right.

Then, if we have:

exp(x - 4) we have a shift of 4 units to the right.

exp (x +9) we have a shift of 9 units to the left.

exp(x) + 7 we have a shift of 7 units up.

exp(x) - 6  we have a shift of 6 units down.

Increments of seven ​
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Specific Learning Outcomes:  

Solve problems that involve finding powers of a number

Description of mathematics:  

In this problem students work with powers of numbers and, as a consequence, come to understand what is happening to the numbers.  

Students also see how an apparently enormous and difficult calculation can be broken down into manageable parts. The students should come to realise that there are only a limited number of unit digits obtained when 7 is raised to a power. Further,  these specific digits 'cycle round' as the power of 7 increases. This cycle is 7, 9, 3, 1, 7, 9, …

The same is true of the digit in the tens place.

Guys I need help in both please​
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Graph 1 is not proportional

Graph 2 is proportional - y is 2 times x

Step-by-step explanation:

In graph 1, there is no x-y correlation

In graph 2, there is, when x=1, y=6

when x=2, y=12. Therefore, when x=3 y would equal 18.
