Answer: Exponential decay model:
y
=
x
(
1
−
r
)
t
, half life of tablet is about
2
hours and after
t
=
3
hours , remaining drug on patient's system is
42.875
mg.
Step-by-step explanation: Initial drug
x
=
125
mg ; rate of decay
r
=
30
100
=
0.3
gm/hour
Exponential model:
y
=
x
(
1
−
r
)
t
=
125
(
1
−
0.3
)
t
=
125
⋅
0.7
t
Half life:
y
=
125
2
=
62.5
mg
∴
62.5
=
125
⋅
0.7
t
or
0.7
t
=
1
2
. Taking logarithm on both sides we get ,
t
log
(
0.7
)
=
log
(
0.5
)
∴
t
=
log
(
0.5
)
log
(
0.7
)
≈
1.94

The half life of tablet is about
2
hours.
After
t
=
3
hours , remaining drug on patient's system is
y
=
125
⋅
0.7
t
=

ANSWER
EXPLANATION
The parent square root function is
The translation
Will shift the graph of f(x) k units to left.
The translation
will shift the graph of f(x) to the right by k units.
Therefore if f(x) is shifted 4 units to the left its new equation is:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x2 - 4x - 12 = 0
x2 - 6x + 2x - 12= 0
x(x - 6) + 2(x - 6) = 0
x + 2 = 0
x = - 2
x - 6 = 0
x = 6
Exponential equation is
y=a(b)ˣ
when b>1, it is growth
when 0>b>1, it is decay
so
we want the 2nd number to be more than 1
that would be the 3rd one, y=3(8)ˣ
