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.

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Constant Term

The term in a simplified algebraic expression or equation which contains no variable(s). If there is no such term, the constant term is 0.

 

Example:   –5 is the constant term in p(x) = 2x3 – 4x2 + 9x – 5
