7. The half-life of a medication is the amount of time for half of the drug to be
eliminated from the body. The half-life of Advil or ibuprofen is
represented by the equation R=M · ( 0.5 )1/ 2, where R is the
amount of Advil remaining in the body, M is the initial dosage,
and t is time in hours.

many milligrams of the medication will remain in the body
at 6:00 pm?
b. If a 200-milligram dosage of Advil is taken how many milligrams of the
medication will remain in the body 12 hours later?
c. How long does it take to reduce the amount of Advil in the body by the
half?
