Accepted Answer

The dosage approaches zero as time increases.

Question 11

Which of the following limits does NOT exist?

Accepted Answer

$$\lim_{x 	o 0} \frac{1}{x}$$

Question 15

Suppose $$h(x)$$ models the height of water in a tank over time, and $$\lim_{x 	o \infty} h(x) = 0. $$What does this mean in practical terms?
