The antibiotic clarithromycin is eliminated from the body according to the formula A(t) = 500e−0.1386t, where A is the amount re

maining in the body (in milligrams) t hours after the drug reaches peak concentration. How much time will pass before the amount of drug in the body is reduced to 100 milligrams? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

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

1. Use the cosine and sine functions to express the exact coordinates of P in terms of angle θ.
Luden [163]

Answer:

For a point defined bt a radius R, and an angle θ measured from the positive x-axis (like the one in the image)

The transformation to rectangular coordinates is written as:

x = R*cos(θ)

y = R*sin(θ)

Here we are in the unit circle, so we have a radius equal to 1, so R = 1.

Then the exact coordinates of the point are:

(cos(θ), sin(θ))

2) We want to mark a point Q in the unit circle sch that the tangent has a value of 0.

Remember that:

tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x)

So if sin(x) = 0, then:

tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x) = 0/cos(x) = 0

So tan(x) is 0 in the points such that the sine function is zero.

These values are:

sin(0°) = 0

sin(180°) = 0

Then the two possible points where the tangent is zero are the ones drawn in the image below.

Find the area of the figure.
Anettt [7]

Answer: 28.5 square units.

Step-by-step explanation: Separate the figure into a rectangle and a triangle. Count the length and width of the rectangle. The length of the rectangle is 8 units and the width is 3 units. To find the area use the formula l*w. 8*3=24.

Next find the area of the triangle section. The triangle is 3 units tall and 3 units wide. To find the area use the formula 1/2(l*w). 3*3=9. 9/2=4.5.

Finally add the areas of the rectangular section and the triangular section. 24+4.5=28.5.

line j has an equation of y=-x+8. line k includes the point (1,-3) and is perpendicular to line j. what is the equation of line
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

y = x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Use point slope form:  (y - y1) = m(x - x1)</u>

m = 1

<u>Step 1:  Plug in</u>

(y - (-3)) = 1(x - 1)

y + 3 - 3 = x - 1 - 3

y = x - 4

Answer:  y = x - 4

Find the linear approximation of f(x)=lnx at x=1 and use it to estimate ln(1.38).
RideAnS [48]
\bf f(x)=y=ln(x)\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;x=1\\&#10;y=ln(1)\to y=0&#10;\end{cases}\\\\&#10;-----------------------------\\\\&#10;\left. \cfrac{dy}{dx}=\cfrac{1}{x} \right|_{x=1}\implies 1\impliedby m&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{now, we know that }&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;x=1\\&#10;y=0\\&#10;m=1&#10;\end{cases}\implies y-0=1(x-1)\implies y=x-1

now, you're asked to use it when ln(1.38), which is just another way of saying x = 1.38

so set x = 1.38 and see what "y" is
