Chapter 1, Problem 34

(choose chapter or problem)

Drug concentration Suppose Ct is the concentration of a drug in the bloodstream at time t, A is the concentration of the drug that is administered at each time step, and k is the fraction of the drug metabolized in a time step. (a) What is the recursion that models how the drug concentration changes? (b) If the initial concentration is C0 120 mgymL and A 80 mgymL and k 1 2, plot some points on the graph of Ct. Is the graph similar for other values of A and k?
