Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- We are told that a drug is administered to a patient at a rate of ( r ). The drug present in the patient at time t is Q. The drug also leaves the patient's body at a rate proportional to the amount of drug present at time t.

- We will set up the first order ODE for the rate of change of drug ( Q ) in the patient's body.

$\frac{dQ}{dt} = ( in-flow ) - ( out-flow )$

- We know that the rate of inflow is the rate at which the drug is administered that is ( r ) and the flow out is proportional to the amount currently present in the patient's body ( k*Q ). Where ( k ) is the constant of proportionality:

$\frac{dQ}{dt} = ( r ) - ( k.Q )$

- Express the ODE in the standard form:

$\frac{dQ}{dt} + k*Q = r$

- The integrating factor ( u ) for the above ODE would be:

$u = e^\int^ {k} \, ^d^t = e^(^k^t^)$

- Use the standard solution of ( Q ) using the integrating factor ( u ):

$u*Q =\int {u.r} \, dt + c\\\\e^(^k^t^)*Q =\int {e^(^k^t^).r} \, dt + c\\\\e^(^k^t^)*Q =\frac{r}{k}*e^(^k^t^) + c\\\\Q = \frac{r}{k} + c*e^(^-^k^t^)$

Where, c: the constant of integration.

- The initial value problem is such that there is no drug in the patient body initially. Hence, Q ( 0 ) = 0:

$Q = \frac{r}{k} + c*(1) = 0\\\\c = -\frac{r}{k}$

- The solution to the ODE is:

$Q(t) = \frac{r}{k}* [ 1 - e^(^-^k^t^) ]$ .... Answer

- We can use any graphing calculator to plot the amount of drug ( Q ) in the patient body. The limiting value of the drug in the long-run ( t -> ∞ ) can be determined as follows:

Lim ( t -> ∞ ) [ Q ( t ) ] = Lim ( t -> ∞ ) [ $\frac{r}{k}* [ 1 - \frac{1}{e^(^-^k^*^i^n^f^) } ]$

Lim ( t -> ∞ ) [ Q ( t ) ] = $\frac{r}{k}* [ 1 - 0 ] = \frac{r}{k}$

- The long-run limiting value of drug in the body would be ( r / k ).

- If the rate of drug administrative rate is doubled then the amount of ( Q ) at any time t would be:

$Q = \frac{2*r}{k} * [ 1 - e^(^-^k^t^) ]$

- The multiplicative factor is 2.

- To reach half the limiting value ( 0.5* r / k ) the amount of time taken for the double rate ( 2r ) of administration of drug would be:

$Q = \frac{2*r}{k} * [ 1 - e^(^-^k^t^) ] = \frac{r}{2*k} \\\\1 - e^(^-^k^t^) = \frac{1}{4} \\\\e^(^-^k^t^) = \frac{3}{4} \\\\kt = - Ln [ 0.75 ]\\\\t = \frac{- Ln [ 0.75 ]}{k}$

- Similarly for the normal administration rate ( r ):

$Q = \frac{r}{k}* [ 1 - e^(^-^k^t^) ] = \frac{r}{2k} \\\\1 - e^(^-^k^t^) = \frac{1}{2} \\\\e^(^-^k^t^) = \frac{1}{2} \\\\kt = - Ln ( 0.5 ) \\\\t = \frac{ - Ln( 0.5 )}{k}$

- The multiplicative factor ( M ) of time taken to reach half the limiting value is as follows:

$M = \frac{\frac{-Ln(0.75)}{k} }{\frac{-Ln(0.5)}{k} } = \frac{Ln ( 0.75 )} { Ln ( 0.5 ) }$

- Similarly repeat the above calculation when the proportionality constant ( k ) is doubled.
