The concentration C (in mg/cc) of a drug in a patient's bloodstream is related to the time t (in hours) after injection in such

a way that as t changes from 0 to 12, C changes from 0.7 to 0.1. Find the average rate of change of C with respect to t.
I have a calculus question similar to this one and I am unsure of how to begin working on this problem.

Answer: -0.05 mg/cc*h

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have the relation:

ConcentrationVsTime.

If we want to find the average rate of change, we can find the slope of a line that passes through the extremes of each interval: (tmin, Cmin) and (tmax, Cmax)

The interval for the time is:

0h to 12h.

The interval for the concentration is:

0.7 mg/cc to 0.1mg/cc.

Then we can use the points:

(0h, 0.7mg/cc) and (12h, 0.1mg/cc)

For a line that passes through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the slope can be written as:

a = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1).

Then in this case the slope (or rate of change) is:

a = (0.1mg/cc - 0.7mg/cc)/(12h - 0h) = (-0.6mm/cc)/12h = -0.05 mg/cc*h

Answer:

diagonal = = 12.8 inches (to the nearest tenth of an inch)

Step-by-step explanation:

As shown in the diagram attached to this solution:

Let the Length of the rectangular board = a

Let the width = b

Let the diagonal = d

where:

a = 10 inches

b = 8 inches

d = ?

Triangle ABC in the diagram is a right-angled triangle, therefore, applying Pythagoras theorem:

(hypotenuse)² = (Adjacent)² + (Opposite)²

d² = 10² + 8²

d² = 100 + 64

d² = 164

∴ d = √(164)

d = 12.806 inches

d = 12.8 inches (to the nearest tenth of an inch)

<em>N:B Rounding off to the nearest tenth of an inch is the same as rounding off to 1 decimal place.</em>

77.2%

To find the probably and at least on you must find the probability of none and subtract from one.

The probability of none can be found like so:

(5+6 over 5+6+7)^3 = .228

1 - .228 = .772

Hope this helps!
