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.

The difference between interior angle in centesimal measurement and sexagesimal measurement is 15° of a regular polygon. Find the number of sides of the polygon.​

Answers

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

x = centesimal angle (100 degrees in a right angle)

y = sexagesimal angle (90 degrees in a right angle)

x - y = 15

x×90/100 = y

x×9/10 = y

x - x×9/10 = 15

10x/10 - 9x/10 = 15

x/10 = 15

x = 150

y = 150×9/10 = 15×9 = 135

using centesimal system :

the sum of all external angles in a polygon is 400 degrees (a full circle).

one external angle is the complement of one internal angle to 200 degrees = 200-150=50 degrees.

to find the number of sides of the polygon we need to find the number of angles or corners. and that is how many external angles fit into the full circle.

n = 400/50 = 8

the polygon has 8 sides

Answer:

C

Here the zeros are x = 6 and x = - 4 then the corresponding factors are

(x - 6) and (x - (- 4) ) , that is (x - 6) and (x + 4)

Suppose f(x) = x^2. what is the graph of g(x)

Answers

Answer:  g(x) = (1/16)*x^2

========================================================

Explanation:

Plug x = 4 into f(x) to find that f(4) = 16.

The output y = 16 drops to y = 1. We've multiplied by 1/16 to get this to happen.

In other words,

g(x) = (1/16)*f(x)

g(4) = (1/16)*f(4)

g(4) = (1/16)*16

g(4) = 1

So we can say that,

g(x) = (1/16)*f(x)

g(x) = (1/16)*x^2

and furthermore, we can say f(x) has been vertically compressed by a factor of 16.

where s is the semi perimeter and a, b, c the sides of the triangle.

Here the perimeter of the equilateral triangle is 21 m , then
