- Drug Concentration A pharmaceutical companyclaims that the concentration of a drug in a patient’sbloodstream will be at least 10% for 8 hours. Supposeclinical tests show that the concentration of a drug (aspercent) t hours after injection is given byC(t) = 200t/2t2 + 32During what time period is the concentration at least10%? Is the company’s claim supported by the evidence?arrow_forward.edu bryuitra/courses roee_re Question Completion Status: The following process describes the complete combustion reaction of Toluene fuel C7HB (SG 0.866) with air. Liquid fuel (n1) enters the combustion chamber at 200mL/min, where it evaporated into a stream of air (n2) 15% in excess. Complete combustion reaction in which only fraction of the fuel is burned. The combustion products go to a condenser, where the unreacted fuel and water are liquified. The mass flowrate of the fuel in this steam (ma) is 50. The uncondensed gas leaves the condenser at 60 C and 0.5 atm gauge pressure.

The river flowing into the reservoir has a flowrate of 3200 cfs. While the reservoir is filling, there must be releases of water downstream from the dam of 1,600 AF/d for irrigation; 5,000 gpm for powerplant cooling; and 10 mgd for a city. How many days will it take to fill? daysarrow_forwarddt The Gompertz growth model is commonly used to model tumor cell growth. Let v(t) be the tumor's volume, then du(t) = A e-atv(t) where λ and a are two appropriate constants. (a) Verify that the solution is given by v(t) = voe/a(1-e-at), where vo is the initial tumor volume. (b) This model takes into account the fact that when nutrients and oxygen are scarce at the tumor's core, its growth is impaired. Find the final predicted tumor volume (let too). (c) For a specific mouse tumor, it was experimentally found that λ = 2.5 days, a = 0.1 days with vo = 50 x 10³ mm³. Use any method available to make a plot of v(t) vs t.
