Question

The ½ life of Morphine is 3 hours. You start with a standard dose, which contains 20 mg.

What is the equation modeling this?

Answer 1

The equation modeling the condition is : A_t = 20 mg * (0.5)^t/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation modeling the half-life of morphine can be represented as:

A_t = A0(0.5)^t/h

Where:

• A_t is the amount of morphine remaining after time t
• A_0 is the initial amount of morphine
• t is the time passed
• h is the half-life of morphine

If the half-life of morphine is 3 hours and the initial dose is 20 mg, the equation would be:

A_t = 20 mg * (0.5)^t/3
