Question 1026908: The function C(t) = K(e^(-at) - e^(-bt)), where a,b,K are positive constants and b>a, is used to model the concentration at time t of a drug injected into the bloodstream.
a.Find the limit of C(t) as t approaches infinity.
b.Find dC/dt, the rate of change of drug concentration in the blood.
