Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean is the average. To find mean, add all the numbers in a data set, then divide by the number of values.

Example: 1,2,3,4,5

Mean: 1+2+3+4+5= 15

Number of values: 5

15/5 = 3

Mean is 3

After an antibiotic tablet is taken, the concentration of the antibiotic in the bloodstream is modelled by the function C(t)=8(e

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

the maximum concentration of the antibiotic during the first 12 hours is 1.185 $\mu g/mL$ at t= 2 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information:

After an antibiotic tablet is taken, the concentration of the antibiotic in the bloodstream is modeled by the function where the time t is measured in hours and C is measured in $\mu g/mL$

$C(t) = 8(e^{(-0.4t)}-e^{(-0.6t)})$

Thus, we are given the time interval [0,12] for t.

We can apply the first derivative test, to know the absolute maximum value because we have a closed interval for t.
The first derivative test focusing on a particular point. If the function switches or changes from increasing to decreasing at the point, then the function will achieve a highest value at that point.

First, we differentiate C(t) with respect to t, to get,

$\frac{d(C(t))}{dt} = 8(-0.4e^{(-0.4t)}+ 0.6e^{(-0.6t)})$

Equating the first derivative to zero, we get,

$\frac{d(C(t))}{dt} = 0\\\\8(-0.4e^{(-0.4t)}+ 0.6e^{(-0.6t)}) = 0$

Solving, we get,

$8(-0.4e^{(-0.4t)}+ 0.6e^{(-0.6t)}) = 0\\\displaystyle\frac{e^{-0.4}}{e^{-0.6}} = \frac{0.6}{0.4}\\\\e^{0.2t} = 1.5\\\\t = \frac{ln(1.5)}{0.2}\\\\t \approx 2$

At t = 0

$C(0) = 8(e^{(0)}-e^{(0)}) = 0$

At t = 2

$C(2) = 8(e^{(-0.8)}-e^{(-1.2)}) = 1.185$

At t = 12

$C(12) = 8(e^{(-4.8)}-e^{(-7.2)}) = 0.059$

Thus, the maximum concentration of the antibiotic during the first 12 hours is 1.185 $\mu g/mL$ at t= 2 hours.

jaylen made a scale model of the washington monument. the monument has an actual height of 555 feet jaylens model used a scale o

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

6.04 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The actual height of the monument = 604 feet

The scale used by Corbins is 1 inch = 100 feet

It implies in Corbins model 1 feet

Therefore, The height of the Corbins model in inches=

Hence, the height of the Corbins model in inches= 6.04 inches

Please help i have 2 questions thank you very much.

Rudik [331]

Hello!

Question 1
We first have to convert everything to yards since the concrete is charged by the cubic yards

15 feet = 5 yards
15 feet = 5 yards
3 inches = 0.08333

Multiply these to find the volume

5 * 5 * 0.08333 = 2.08325

Multiply this by the cost

2.08325 * 46 = 95.83

The answer is C) $95.83
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Question 2

You have to find the volume of the first pyramid

The equation we use is $V = \frac{lwh}{3}$

V is volume
l is length
w is width
h is height

Put in the values we know

$V = \frac{16 * 16 * 28}{3}$

Multiply

$V = \frac{7168}{3}$

Divide

V = 2389.3333

Now we use this to find the side length of the second pyramid

$2389.333 = \frac{lw * 112}{3}$

Multiply both sides by 3

<span>7167.999 = lw * 112
</span>
Divide both sides by 112

63.9999 = lw

Since it is a square pyramid we know that sides are equal

63.999 = l^2

Take the square root of both sides

8 = l

The answer is B) 8in

Hope this helps!
