Acetaminophen is a common pain reliever and fever reducer. Here is a graph showing the amount of acetaminophen, in milligrams, in an adult's body at different times after they take a normal dose. 1. What is the vertical intercept? What does it mean in this situation?

2. What fraction of the medicine remained after one hour?

3. Write an equation that represents the amount of medicine, a, after t hours.

step-by-step explanation:

let

we know that

the y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point when the value of x is equal to zero

so

the y-coordinate of the point a is the y-intercept

the answer part a) is

the value of y-intercept is

part b) find the slope m

we know that

the value of the slope is equal to

substitute the values

therefore

the answer part b) is

the value of the slope is equal to

the general answer is

the slope is

the value of y-intercept is

$30.32

step-by-step explanation:

65.00*.12=2.80

65.00-2.80=57.20

57.20*1.06=60.632

60.632/2=30.316

they charge the same amount at 20 minutes.
