At 5:00 p.m., Vera took 400 milligrams

Mathematics
1 answer:
olganol [36]3 years ago

Answer:

61.68 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table :

5:00pm - 400mg

6:00pm - 350mg

7:00pm - 306.25mg

First we obtain the percentage rate at which the drug leaves her system per hour :

Take between 5-6 pm

((400 - 350) / 400) * 100%

(50 / 400) * 100%

0.125 * 100%

= 12.5%

.we can use the exponential function :

A = P(1 - r)^t

r = rate, t = time (hours) ; P= initial amount ; A = final amount

Mg of medicine left when she wakes up at 7:00 am

t = 7:00am - 5:00 pm = 14 hours

P = 400 mg

r = 0.125

A = 400(1 - 0.125)^14

A = 400 * 0.1542100

A = 61.68402913

About 61.68 mg

Which algebraic properties was applied to the expression a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c?
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

the Associative Property

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the ORDER doesn't change -- a, b, c on both sides.  But the GROUPING changes.

Example:

3 + (4 + 5) = (3 + 4) + 5

3 + 9 = 7 + 5

12 = 12

Subtraction does NOT behave this way!

8 - (7 - 1) = 8 - 6 = 2

(8 - 7) - 1 = 1 - 1 = 0

It matters who you associate with!  :-)

What is f(x)=2(3)^x?
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

This is an exponential function

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=2(3)^x is one example of the exponential function.  Since f(0) = 2(1) = 2, the y-intercept is (0, 2).  The x-axis is the horizontal asymptote.  The graph begins in Quadrant II, passes through (0, 2) and continues to increase, faster and faster, in Quadrant I.  Next time, please be more specific about what you'd like to know.
