A cup of coffee contains about 100 mg of caffeine. Caffeine is metabolized and leaves the body at a continuous rate of about 12%

every hour. a. Write a differential equation for the amount, A, of the caffeine in the body as a function of the number of hours, t, since the coffee was consumed. b. Use the differential equation to find dA/dt at the start of the first hour (right after the coffee is consumed). Use your answer to estimate the change in the amount of caffeine during the first hour.

Answer:

a. A = C_{0}(1-x)^t\\x: percentage\ of \ caffeine\ metabolized\\

b. \frac{dA}{dt}= -11.25 \frac{mg}{h}

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need tot find a general expression for the amount of caffeine remaining in the body after certain time. As the problem states that every hour x percent of caffeine leaves the body, we must substract that percentage from the initial quantity of caffeine, by each hour passing. That expression would be:

A= C_{0}(1-x)^t\\t: time \ in \ hours\\x: percentage \ of \ caffeine\ metabolized\\

Then, to find the amount of caffeine metabolized per hour, we need to differentiate the previous equation. Following the differentiation rules we get:

\frac{dA}{dt} =C_{0}(1-x)^t \ln (1-x)\\\frac{dA}{dt} =100*0.88\ln(0.88)\\\frac{dA}{dt} =-11.25 \frac{mg}{h}

The rate is negative as it represents the amount of caffeine leaving the body at certain time.

A birdbath is filled to the top. On Day 1, the volume of water in the bowl decreases by 7/8 cup. On Day 2, the volume in the bow
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

-1 5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total amount in the bowl be x;

If on Day 1, the volume of water in the bowl decreases by 7/8 cup, the remaining water will be;

x - 7/8

If on day 2, the volume in the bowl decreases by 3/4 cup, the remaining volume of water after the second day will be;

= x - 7/8 - 3/4

= x - (7-2(3))/8

= x - (7+6)/8

= x - 13/8

This shows that the total change after the two days is -13/8

As a mixed fraction;

-13/8 = -1 5/8

10, 30, 90 continue the pattern
Novosadov [1.4K]
The answer is 270, the pattern is multiplying by 3. So, 10 • 3 = 30 30 • 3 = 90 90 • 3 = 270, and so on. Hope this helps! Let me know if you need any further assistant.

a regular hexagonal nut of side 1 cm and length 3 cm with a central hole of diameter 1 cm. 3 cm 1 cm 1 cm. Calculate the volume
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

  5.44 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the hexagonal nut can be found by multiplying the area of the end face by the length of the nut. The end face area is the difference between the area of the hexagon and the area of the hole.

The area of a hexagon with side length s is given by ...

  A = (3/2)√3·s²

For s=1 cm, the area is ...

  A = (3/2)√3(1 cm)² = (3/2)√3 cm²

__

The area of a circle is given by ...

  A = πr²

The radius of a circle with diameter 1 cm is 0.5 cm. Then the area of the hole is ...

  A = π(0.5 cm)² = 0.25π cm²

__

The volume is the face area multiplied by the length, so is ...

  V = Bh = ((3/2)√3 -0.25π)(3) . . . . . cm³

  V = (9/2)√3 -0.75π cm³ ≈ 5.44 cm³

The volume of the metal is about 5.44 cm³.
