When doctors prescribe medicine, they must consider how much the drug’s effectiveness will decrease as time passes. If each hour a drug is only 95% as effective as the previous hour, at some point the patient will not be receiving enough medicine and must be given another dose. If the initial dose was 250 mg, what will the level of the dose be after 3 hours?

 The level of the dose be after 3 hours=  0.03125 mg.

Step-by-step explanation:

General exponential decay equation : , where A = initial value , r= rate of decay , x =Time period.

Here, drug’s effectiveness  is decreasing exponentially.

AS per given , we have

A= 250 mg

x=3

r= 95% = 0.95

Then,

Hence, the level of the dose be after 3 hours = 0.03125 mg.

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.
