Ben consumes an energy drink that contains caffeine. After consuming the energy drink, the amount of caffeine in Ben's body decr

eases exponentially. The 10-hour decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body is 0.2722. What is the 5-hour growth/decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body

Answer:

The 5-hour decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body is of 0.1469.

Step-by-step explanation:

After consuming the energy drink, the amount of caffeine in Ben's body decreases exponentially.

This means that the amount of caffeine after t hours is given by:

A(t) = A(0)e^{-kt}

In which A(0) is the initial amount and k is the decay rate, as a decimal.

The 10-hour decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body is 0.2722.

1 - 0.2722 = 0.7278, thus, A(10) = 0.7278A(0). We use this to find k.

A(t) = A(0)e^{-kt}

0.7278A(0) = A(0)e^{-10k}

e^{-10k} = 0.7278

\ln{e^{-10k}} = \ln{0.7278}

-10k = \ln{0.7278}

k = -\frac{\ln{0.7278}}{10}

k = 0.03177289938


Then

A(t) = A(0)e^{-0.03177289938t}

What is the 5-hour growth/decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body?

We have to find find A(5), as a function of A(0). So

A(5) = A(0)e^{-0.03177289938*5}

A(5) = 0.8531

The decay factor is:

1 - 0.8531 = 0.1469

The 5-hour decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body is of 0.1469.

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

7/30

Step-by-step explanation:

-3/9 * -56/80

-3/9= -1/3

-56/80 = -7/10

-1/3(-7/10)

1(7) / 3(10)

Consider the functions below. f(x, y, z) = x i − z j + y k r(t) = 4t i + 6t j − t2 k (a) evaluate the line integral c f · dr, wh
fredd [130]

With

\vec r(t)=4t\,\vec\imath+6t\,\vec\jmath-t^2\,\vec k

we have

\mathrm d\vec r=(4\,\vec\imath+6\,\vec\jmath-2t\,\vec k)\,\mathrm dt

The vector field evaluated over this parameterization is

\vec f(x,y,z)=\vec f(x(t),y(t),z(t))=4t\,\vec\imath+t^2\,\vec\jmath+6t\,\vec k

so the line integral is

\displaystyle\int_{-1}^1(4t\,\vec\imath+t^2\,\vec\jmath+6t\,\vec k)\cdot(4\,\vec\imath+6\,\vec\jmath-2t\,\vec k)\,\mathrm dt

=\displaystyle\int_{-1}^1(16t+6t^2-12t^2)\,\mathrm dt=-4
