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.

What reason should kamal add to all of the question marks in order to completer the proof
brilliants [131]

Answer: The answers is alternate interior angles.


Step-by-step explanation:  First of all, the questions marks given in the figure are renamed in the attached figure as (a), (b), (c) and (d).

For (a): Since AC is parallel to A'C' and A'D is a transversal for these two parallel lines, so, ∠CDB' = ∠B'A'C', because these are alternate interior angles.

For (b): Since BC is parallel to B'C' and A'B' is a transversal, so ∠BEB' = ∠A'B'C', because these are alternate interior angles.

For (c): Since AB is parallel to A'B' and AD is a transversal, so ∠BAC = ∠CDB', because these are alternate interior angles.

For (d): Since AB is parallel to A'B' and BE is a transversal, so ∠ABC = ∠BEB', because these are alternate interior angles.

Thus, all the questions marks are the reasons that the given angles are equal because they are alternate interior angles.
