Textbook Question

Chapter 1.1, Problem 14P

A certain drug is being administered intravenously to a hospital patient. Fluid containing 5 mg/cm 3 of the drug enters the patient’s bloodstream at a rate of 100 cm 3 /h . The drug is absorbed by body tissues or otherwise leaves the bloodstream at a rate proportional to the amount present, with a 0.4 h -1 .

Assuming that the drug is always uniformly distributedthroughout the bloodstream, write a differential equation for the amount of the drug that is present in the bloodstream atany time.

How much of the drug is present in the bloodstream aftera long time?

Evaluate = f J dx by using Simpson's rule, 2n=10. 2

Use Euler and Heun methods to solve y' = 2y-x, h=0.1, y(0)=0, compute y₁ y5, calculate the Abs_Error.

Use Heun's method to numerically integrate dy dx = -2x3 +12x² - 20x+8.5 from x=0 to x=4 with a step size of 0.5. The initial condition at x=0 is y=1. Recall that the exact solution is given by y = -0.5x + 4x³- 10x² + 8.5x+1
