A drug response curve describes the level of medication in the bloodstream after a drug is administered. A surge function, given below, is often used to model the response curve, reflecting an initial surge in the drug level and then a more gradual decline. If, for a particular drug, A = 0.03, p = 6, k = 8, and t is measured in minutes, estimate the times, t corresponding to the inflection points. (Round the answers to three decimal places.)
S(t) = At p e-kt
t > 0

When a foreign object lodged in the trachea (windpipe) forces a person to cough, the diaphragm thrusts upward causing an increase in pressure in the lungs. This is accompanied by a contraction of the trachea, making a narrower channel for the expelled air to flow through. For a given amount of air to escape in a fixed time, it must move faster through the narrower channel than the wider one. The greater the velocity of the airstream, the greater the force on the foreign object. X-rays show that the radius of the circular tube contracts to about two-thirds of its normal radius during a cough. According to a mathematical model of coughing, the velocity v of the airstream is related to the radius r of the trachea by the equation below, where k is a constant and s is the normal radius of the trachea. The restriction of r is due to the fact that the trachea wall stiffens under pressure and a contraction greater than 0.5s is prevented (otherwise the person would suffocate).
v(r) = k(s - r)r2
0.5s ≤ r ≤ s
(a) Determine the value of r in the interval [0.5s, s] at which v has an absolute maximum.
r =
(b) What is the absolute maximum value of v on the interval?

Brain weight B as a function of body weight W in fish has been modeled by the power function B = 0.007W2/3, where B and W are measured in grams. A model for body weight as a function of body length L (measured in centimeters) is W = 0.12L2.53. If, over 10 million years, the average length of a certain species of fish evolved from 16 cm to 24 cm at a constant rate, how fast was this species' brain growing when the average length was 18 cm?

Boyle's Law states that when a sample of gas is compressed at a constant temperature, the pressure P and volume V satisfy the equation PV = C, where C is a constant. Suppose that at a certain instant the volume is 100 cm3, the pressure is 200 kPa, and the pressure is increasing at a rate of 20 kPa/min. At what rate is the volume decreasing at this instant?
