A patient is told to avoid caffeine for 8 to 12 hours before a blood test scheduled for 6 a.m. The blood test is reliable for up to 50 milligrams of caffeine in the bloodstream. The patient’s body metabolizes caffeine at a rate of 13% per hour.
a. At 10 p.m., the patient drinks a cup of coffee containing 150 milligrams of caffeine. Will the patient be ready for the blood test by 6 a.m.? Explain.
b. How many milligrams of caffeine could the patient have ingested at 7 p.m. and been ready for the blood test at 6 a.m.?

Answers

Answer 1

Using exponential functions, it is found that:

a) Since the amount of caffeine will be less than 50 mg, the patient will be ready for the blood test by 6 a.m.

b) The patient could have ingest 231 milligrams of caffeine.

A decaying exponential function is modeled by:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^t[/tex]

In which:

A(0) is the initial value.r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

In this problem:

Caffeine metabolize at a rate of 13% per hour, hence [tex]r = 0.13[/tex].

Then:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 - 0.13)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(0.87)^t[/tex]

Item a:

The coffee cup contains 150 milligrams of caffeine, hence [tex]A(0) = 150[/tex].

At 6 a.m., it is 8 hours after drinking the coffee, hence we have to find A(8).

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(0.87)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(8) = 150(0.87)^8[/tex]

[tex]A(8) = 49.2[/tex]

Since the amount of caffeine will be less than 50 mg, the patient will be ready for the blood test by 6 a.m.

Item b:

This A(0), considering A(11) = 50, hence:

[tex]50 = A(0)(0.87)^{11}[/tex]

[tex]A(0) = \frac{50}{(0.87)^{11}}[/tex]

[tex]A(0) = 231[/tex]

The patient could have ingest 231 milligrams of caffeine.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I dont really know how to find out the variables but what i assume to do is this:

Find the square root of n and add it to m. The sum of both you divide by p. then when you figure that out, you distribute the x value into the parenthesis. This might be obvious but i looked at this question for 10 minutes and couldnt  find the value sorry :(

Answer:

m = 11
n = 145
p = -4

As you substitute the equation -2x^2 – 11x + 3 = 0 (from factorising x(-2x-11) = -3) into the quadratic formula to find the values of m, n and p.

During a sale at a furniture store, sofas were marked down 30%. You have a coupon for an additional 15% off. What is the final price of a sofa that originally cost $550?

Answers

Answer:

327.25

Step-by-step explanation:

550*0.7=385

385*0.85=327.25

!!! MUST REMEMBER!!!

dont add 30% and 15% together, 15% is another discount on the price that has been marked down.

The final price of a sofa will be $302.5.

What is mean by Percentage?

A number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100 or a relative value indicating hundredth part of any quantity is called percentage.

To Calculate the percent of a number , divide the number by whole number and multiply by 100.

Given that;

The original price of a sofa = $550

During sale at a furniture store, sofas marked down = 30%

Coupon for an additional 15% off.

Now,

Total percent for profit on a sofa = 30% + 15%

                                                  = 45%

Hence, The cost of a sofa after discount will be calculate as;

The cost of discount at a sofa = 45% of 550

                                              = 45/100 x 550

                                              = 24,750 / 100

                                              = 247.5

So, The final cost of a sofa = $550 - $247.5

                                         = $302.5

Therefore, The final price of a sofa will be $302.5.

Solve 6[9 - (9x - 8)] + 3x = 0.

A. 2
B. -5/4
C. -32/47
D. 2/15
E. None of the above

Answers

Answer: 2

Step-by-step explanation:

distribute: 6 [ 9 − 9 + 8 ] + 3 = 0

add the numbers: 6 [ 1 7 − 9 ] + 3 = 0

rearrange terms: 6 [ − 9 + 1 7 ] + 3 = 0

distribute again: − 5 4 + 1 0 2 + 3 = 0

combine like terms:  − 5 4 + 1 0 2 + 3 = 0

Subtract  102  from both sides of the equation: − 5 1 + 1 0 2 − 1 0 2 = 0 − 1 0 2

simplify:− 5 1 = − 1 0 2

Divide both sides of the equation by the same term: -51x/-51 = -102/-51

simplify: 2

Radius is half the diameter.

The diameter is shown as 16, so the radius would be 16/2 = 8 in.

Help plz

Answers

Answer:

The slopes are equal

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m of f(x) using the slope formula

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, 2) ← 2 points on the line

m = [tex]\frac{2-5}{0-(-1)}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-3}{0+1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-3}{1}[/tex] = - 3

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

g(x) = - 3x - 6 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 3

Then the slopes of f(x) and g(x) are equal, meaning the lines are parallel
