Answer:

Time(t) = 11.61 hours (Rounded to two decimal place)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The antibiotic  clarithromycin is eliminated from the body according to the formula:

A(t) = 500e^{-0.1386t}                 ......[1]

where;

A - Amount remaining in the body(in milligram)

t - time in hours after the drug reaches peak concentration.

Given: Amount of drug in the body is reduced to 100 milligrams.

then,

Substitute the value of A = 100 milligrams in [1] we get;

100= 500e^{-0.1386t}

Divide both sides by 500 we get;

\frac{100}{500}=\frac{ 500e^{-0.1386t}}{500}

Simplify:

\frac{1}{5} = e^{-0.1386t}

Taking logarithm both sides with base e, then we have;

\log_e (\frac{1}{5})= \log_e (e^{-0.1386t})

\log_e (\frac{1}{5})=-0.1386t         [ Using \log_e e^a =a ]

or

\log_e (0.2)=-0.1386t

-1.6094379124341 = -0.1386t

 [using value of \log_e (0.2) = -1.6094379124341 ]

then;

t = \frac{-1.6094379124341}{-0.1386}

Simplify:

t ≈11.61 hours.

Therefore, the time 11.61 hours(Rounded two decimal place) will pass before the amount of drug in the body is reduced to 100 milligrams

Write the ordered pair that represents MP. Then find the magnitude of MP.
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

(23,-4):\sqrt{545} units

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that M(-19,4)and P(4,0)

We have to find the ordered pair that represents MP and find the magnitude of MP.

MP=P-M

MP=(4,0)-(-19,4)=(4+19,0-4)

MP=(23,-4)

Magnitude of MP=\sqrt{(23)^2+(-4)^2}

Magnitude of MP=\sqrt{529+16}

Magnitude of MP=\sqrt{545} units

Hence, .option c is true.

Answer:c.(23,-4):\sqrt{545} units

Ashley and Keely shared some Hershey Kisses in the ratio of 5:2. If Keely had 12 Hershey Kisses, how many did Ashley have?​
wolverine [178]

Answer:

Ashely had 30 kisses! Muah!

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of Ashely to Keely is 5 : 2 and we know Keely had 12. Keely represents the 2 in this ratio, and how do we get from 2 to 12? We multiply by 6. We have to multiply by 6 on the other side too then. 5 times 6 is 30, so Ashely had 30 hershey kisses.

In real life, not in ratio form, Ashely had 30 kisses and Keely had 12.

Please mark brainliest if possible, have a nice day! :)

A 15-foot ladder leans against a house. The bottom of the ladder is 7 feet from the house. To the nearest degree, what angle doe
max2010maxim [7]
The ladder is forming a right triangle with the house. In this right triangle the hypotenuse is the measure of the ladder, and the distance between the house and he ladder is one of the sides of the triangle. To find the angle, \alpha, that the ladder is making with the ground, we are going to use a trig function that relates the adjacent side of our angle with the hypotenuse. That trig function is Cosine. 
Cos \alpha = \frac{adjacent.side}{hypotenuse}
Cos \alpha = \frac{7}{15}
\alpha =arcCos( \frac{7}{15} )
\alpha =62.2

We can conclude that the ladder make with the ground a 62° angle.
