Answer:

Every hour, the medicine concentration decays by a factor of 4%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between the elapsed time, <em>t</em>, in minutes, since the medicine was ingested, and its concentration in the bloodstream, <em>C</em> (<em>t</em>), is:

C(t)=61\cdot (0.96)^{t}

The decay function is:

y=a(1-r)^{t}

Here,

<em>y</em> = final amount

<em>a </em>= initial amount

<em>r</em> = decay rate

<em>t</em> = time

From the provided expression the decay rate is:

1-r=0.96\\r=1-0.96\\r=0.04

Thus, every hour, the medicine concentration decays by a factor of 4%.

A car tire with a radius of 16inches is turning at a rate of 120 revolutions per minute. Find the exact linear speed of the tire
anygoal [31]

Answer:

The speed of the tyre of the car is 1002.24 feet per minute .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The radius of the car wheel = r = 16 inches

Since 12 inches = 1 feet

So,  16 inches = \frac{1}{12}×16 = 1.33 feet

The number of revolution of the wheel = 120 revolution per minute

Let The speed of the wheel = s feet per minute

The circumference of wheel = 2 × \pi × radius

where  \pi  = 3.14

or, circumference =  2 × 3.14 × 1.33

Or, Circumference = 8.352 feet

Now , Speed =  circumference of wheel × number of revolution

or, Speed = 8.352 feet × 120 revolution per minute

∴ Speed = 1002.24 feet per minute

Hence The speed of the tyre of the car is 1002.24 feet per minute . Answer
