Many doctors rely on the use of intravenous medication administration in order to achieve an immediate response of a particular drug's effects. The concentration, C, in mg/L, of a particular medication after being injected into a patient can be given by the function C of t is equal to the quantity negative 18 times t squared plus 54 times t end quantity over the quantity t squared plus 7 times t plus 10 end quantity comma where the time, t is hours after injection.

Part A: What is the domain of the function C(t) based on the context of the problem? Show all necessary calculations. (5 points)

Part B: Graph the function to determine the greatest concentration of the medication that a patient will have in their body. (5 points)


Many Doctors Rely On The Use Of Intravenous Medication Administration In Order To Achieve An Immediate Response Of A Particular Drugs Effects The Concentration class=

Sagot :

The domain of the function is 0 ≤ t ≤ 3 and the greatest concentration of the medication is 2mg/L

The domain of the function

The equation of the function is given as:

[tex]C(t) = \frac{-18t^2 + 54t}{t^2 + 7t + 10}[/tex]

Time can be 0 or greater but cannot be negative.

So, the domain of the function includes t ≥ 0

Set the function to 0 to determine the maximum value of t.

[tex]\frac{-18t^2 + 54t}{t^2 + 7t + 10} = 0[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]-18t^2 + 54t = 0[/tex]

Factor out -18t

-18t(t - 3) = 0

Divide both sides by -18t

t - 3 = 0

Add 3 to both sides

t = 3

This means that the maximum value of t is 3

Hence, the domain of the function is 0 ≤ t ≤ 3

The greatest concentration of the medication

From the graph of the function (see attachment), we have the maximum value to be;

C(t) = 2

Hence, the greatest concentration of the medication is 2mg/L
