Answer: Choice D) 281.25 mg

================================================

Work Shown:

Plug in t = 2 and we get the following

[tex]a = 500*\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^{t}\\\\a = 500*\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^{2}\\\\a = 500*\left(0.75\right)^{2}\\\\a = 500*0.5625\\\\a = 281.25\\\\[/tex]

The answer is choice D. There are 281.25 mg of aspirin in the bloodstream after 2 hours.

-----------------

Side notes:

  • The 500 represents the initial amount of aspirin (in mg) in the bloodstream. This is the amount when t = 0.
  • The 3/4 converts to 0.75; when solving 1+r = 0.75, we get r = -0.25, and this shows a 25% reduction in aspirin each time t goes up by 1. Every hour, the amount of aspirin in the bloodstream reduces by 25%
