Answer: D. The number of times the drug has removed a certain percentage of fluid from the patient's lungs

Step-by-step explanation:

In a standard exponential function Ab^x, A is the initial amount and b is the multiplicative factor and x is the number of time periods.

Given: A medical lab is testing a drug that removes a certain percent of fluid from the lungs of a patient every eight hours.

The expression below represents the number of milligrams of fluid remaining in a patient's lungs after n days.

4.000(0.58)^3n,

As comparing to the standard exponential equation,  here 3n represents the number of times the drug has removed a certain percentage of fluid from the patient's lungs.

My number has a tens digit that is 8 more than the ones digit. Zero is not one of my digits. Write the 2-digit number that match
pochemuha

Answer:

The number is 91

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the ones place digit and y be the tens place digit,

Then the number would be 10y + x,

We have,

y - x = 8

Possible values of y and x = { (8, 0), (9, 1) }

∵ 0 is not the digit of the number,

Hence, y = 9 and x = 1

Therefore, required number = 10(9) + 1 = 90 + 1 = 91
