y=23x+143 hope this helps
Not sure if im right but keep multiplying it and then you will get your answer, i have an answer but im afraid it might be a bit off, goodluck
Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
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
(
2
d
p
)
hour
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
=
125
⋅
0.7
3
=
42.875
