Question 1130982: The exponential function
A(t) = 200e−0.014t
gives the amount of medication, in milligrams, in a patient's bloodstream t minutes after the medication has been injected into the patient's bloodstream.
(a) Find the amount of medication, to the nearest milligram, in the patient's bloodstream after 35 minutes._______mg
(b) Use a graphing utility to determine how long it will take, to the nearest minute, for the amount of medication in the patient's bloodstream to reach 50 milligrams._________min Answer by ankor@dixie-net.com(22740) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The exponential function should be written as:
gives the amount of medication, in milligrams, in a patient's bloodstream t minutes after the medication has been injected into the patient's bloodstream.
(a) Find the amount of medication, to the nearest milligram, in the patient's bloodstream after 35 minutes._______mg
A(t) = 200*.6126
A(t) = 122.5 mg
:
(b) Use a graphing utility to determine how long it will take, to the nearest minute, for the amount of medication in the patient's bloodstream to reach 50 milligrams._________min
Graph equation: y = 200*e^(-.014x)
Amt of 50 mg will occur at 99 minutes (green line is 50 mg)
