The amount in grams of a drug in the body t hours after taking a pill is given by A(t)=25(0.9)^t. a) What is the initial dose given? b) What percent of the drug leaves the body after each hour? c) What is the amount of drug left after 8 hours?
Cylinders
A cylinder is a three-dimensional solid shape with two parallel and congruent circular bases, joined by a curved surface at a fixed distance. A cylinder has an infinite curvilinear surface.
Cones
A cone is a three-dimensional solid shape having a flat base and a pointed edge at the top. The flat base of the cone tapers smoothly to form the pointed edge known as the apex. The flat base of the cone can either be circular or elliptical. A cone is drawn by joining the apex to all points on the base, using segments, lines, or half-lines, provided that the apex and the base both are in different planes.
The amount in grams of a drug in the body t hours after taking a pill is given by A(t)=25(0.9)^t.
