The exponential function is given by [tex]y = 69.5(0.6786)^x \\[/tex]

Exponential function

An exponential function is in the form:

[tex]y=ab^x[/tex]

Where a is the initial value of y and b is the multiplier factor

Let y represent the amount of drug after x hours.

After 2 hours, there are 32 mg left. Hence:

  • 32 = ab²    (1)

After 5 hours, there are 10 mg left. Hence:

  • 10 = ab⁵      (2)

From equation 1 and 2, b = 0.6786, a = 69.5

The exponential function is given by [tex]y = 69.5(0.6786)^x \\[/tex]

At 1 hour:

y = 69.5(0.6786) = 47 mg
