A drug has an initial concentration of 0.25 g/cc in an aqueous solution. The rate order constant k is 6.4 x 10^-3 months^-1. What would be the shelf life of the drug, in months, if it is known to be ineffective after 10% has degraded? Round your final answer to one decimal place.
Supreeta N.
A drug is injected into a patient and the concentration of the drug in the bloodstream is monitored. The drug's concentration, $y,$ in milligrams per liter, after $x$ hours is modeled by $$y=\frac{5 x}{x^{2}+1}$$ The graph of this equation, obtained with a graphing utility, is shown in the figure in a $[0,10,1]$ by $[0,3,1]$ viewing rectangle. Use this information. Use the graph of the equation to find after how many hours the drug reaches its maximum concentration. Then use the equation to find the drug's concentration at this time.

Half-Life of a Drug. The quantity of a prescription drug in the bloodstream of a patient $t$ hours after it is administered can be modeled by an exponential function. (See the graph.) From the graph determine the time it takes to eliminate half of the initial dose from the body.
