600 minutes at the gym divided by a total of 60 minutes equals 10. 10 times 25 minutes on the treadmill equals 250 minutes. 10 times 35 minutes lifting weights equals 350 minutes. He’s going to spend 100 more minutes lifting weights than on the treadmill per week.

The concentration C (in mg/dl), of an antibiotic in a patient’s bloodstream per hour, t, is given by: c(t) = (50t)/(t^2+25) In o

NARA [144]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Functions </u>

The problem describes a function that expresses the concentration of an antibiotic in mg/dl vs time in hours as:

$\displaystyle c(t)=\frac{50\ t}{t^2+25}$

We need to find the first value of t such that

$\displaystyle c(t)\geq 4$

It means that

$\displaystyle \frac{50\ t}{t^2+25}\geq 4$

Operating with the inequality

$\displaystyle 50\ t\geq 4\ t^2+100$

Rearranging and dividing by 2, we have a polynomial inequality:

$\displaystyle 2t^2-25t+50\leq 0$

Factoring

$\displaystyle 2(t-10)\left (t-\frac{5}{2}\right )\leq 0$

There are two possible values for t, both valids because they are positive

$\displaystyle t=\frac{5}{2}=2.5, \ t=10$

We need to find the first value, i.e.

$t=2.5 \ hours$

Now for the graphic method, we plot the graph for the function and a horizontal line at c=4 to find the values of t.

The graph is shown in the image provided below. We can see both values where the funcion and C=4 intersect. Both values coincide with the previously analitically found values

ABOUT THIS TUTOR ›

y=mx + b is the standard slope intercept form for a line

m=1/2, b =-2

y=(1/2)x -2. y-intercept is -2 or the point (0,-2)

x intercept is found by setting y=0 and solving for x

0=(1/2)x - 2

(1/2)x = 2

x = 4 = the x intercept or (4,0)

plot the 2 intercepts (0,-2) and (4,0)

(4,0) is on the x axis, 4 units to the right of the origin (0,0)

(0,-2) is on the y axis, 2 units below the origin

once you plot those two points, draw a straight line connecting them. That's the graph of the line
