It depends on the drug's half life and organ excreting/clearing the drug. The peak/trough would be Ideally the fluctuations would be greater since the time between doses is longer. However the maximum accumulation would be decreased because the serum *trough* is lower.
I love the idea of this thread and would love to partake, however, I just looked at that question and felt too dumb to even finish reading it. #idrawpicturesforaliving
Both red and blue had doses of 100mg, given at 10 (blue) and 20 (red) hour intervals. Increasing the dosing interval decreases accumulation. Simply, less drug is being administered in the same amount of time, therefore, the body is dealing with and eliminating less drug, so there's less to accumulate. Fluctuation is different it runs counter to accumulation. The longer the dosing interval, the greater fluctuation. This is all assuming equal elimination and half lives, and same dosing of course. Increasing the dose has a much greater affect on both than the dosing interval does. :x Don't worry, I just took a class in this stuff and it's still a mess to me
Sorry for the delay! Finals suck the life out of me... Question #12 Three people check into a hotel room. The clerk says the bill is $30, so each guest pays $10. Later the clerk realizes the bill should only be $25. To rectify this, he gives the bellhop $5 to return to the guests. On the way to the room, the bellhop realizes that he cannot divide the money equally. As the guests didn't know the total of the revised bill, the bellhop decides to just give each guest $1 and keep $2 as a tip for himself. Each guest got $1 back, so now each guest only paid $9, bringing the total paid to $27. The bellhop has $2. And $27 + $2 = $29 so, if the guests originally handed over $30, what happened to the remaining $1? PLEASE don't google this one. Think it through and try to figure it out :x
Hopefully my answer makes sense. 3 × 10 = 25 + 2 +3 3 × 9 + 3 × 1 = 25 + 2 + 3 3 × 9 = 25 + 2 The last mathematical sentence already answers the question. The remaining 2 should be added to the 25 bill to make up the total expenditure of 27 by the guests. The remaining 2 should NOT be added to the total expenditure of 27 by the guests but should categorise the 2 as part of the bill totalling to 27.
I literally only came across this Thread just now, and boy do I love this type of fun! For Question #12: Nothing happened to the remaining $1 as there is no such thing. Each guest only paid $9, bringing the total paid to $27. This $27 is the grand total price of each person paying 1/3 of the revised bill of $25 and 1/3 of the bellhop's tip of $2. The $1 given back to each guest makes up for the originally handed $30. The bellhop's tip must be included in the $9 each that the guests paid because otherwise one could say "The guests paid $27 total, the bellhop has $2, and wait, the guests were given back $3! How is the grand total now $32?!" Kappa.
Since the last one was so easy... Question #14 Which character in the show Law and Order SVU gets shot in this corner store (and what episode was it... to weed out the guessers )
Wow this is fun, after rewatching the whole series... Question #14 Fin Tutoula Season 6 episode 10 "Haunted"
Question #16 A childhood favourite (and I'm sure the same for most), I'm stealing this one from Harry P, try and not to google it though D: "They stepped over the threshold and immediately a fire sprang up behind them in the doorway. It wasn’t ordinary fire either; it was purple. At the same instant, black flames shot up in the doorway leading onwards. They were trapped…" The basic premise is there are 2 potions you want to protect yourself from the flames. One to move forward (Thru the black fire) and one to move back (thru the purple fire). Which potion is which? "Danger lies before you, while safety lies behind, Two of us will help you, whichever you would find, One among us seven will let you move ahead, Another will transport the drinker back instead, Two among our number hold only nettle wine, Three of us are killers, waiting hidden in line. Choose, unless you wish to stay here for evermore, To help you in your choice, we give you these clues four: First, however slyly the poison tries to hide You will always find some on nettle wine’s left side; Second, different are those who stand at either end, But if you would move onwards, neither is your friend; Third, as you see clearly, all are different size, Neither dwarf nor giant holds death in their insides; Fourth, the second left and the second on the right Are twins once you taste them, though different at first sight" HELP HARRY POTTER DEFEAT HE-WHO-MUST-NOT-BE-NAMED! If you know this one already, don't spoil it!
Omfg, this took up way more time than I expected it to... I feel frustrated yet accomplished. Well, I'll only feel truly accomplished if it ends up being correct. As soon as I saw the notification for a new post by Evan (5 Hours after he officially posted it), I started skimming through it immediately. As I noticed "riddle language" present in the post, I decided to get some paper to showcase my entire thought process. I thought it was going to be a simple question that I'd be able to solve quickly. But boy was I wrong. And you can definitely see my emotions change through my penmanship... My Final Answer: I'm going to assume the Second Clue refers to "different" as in different in any way possible, which in this case the SIZE of Potion #1 and Potion #7 being different. I'm also going to assume the Potions that will protect myself from the flames of the Purple Fire and Black Fire TASTE different because they aid in different ways. Additional reasoning as to why I am assuming the above two statements is because if I assume the opposite of both statements or assume only one of the two statements being opposite of so, there is simply not enough information to guarantee myself through both Fires. Potion #1 (Far Left In A Horizontal Line): Poison Potion #2: Nettle Wine Potion #3: Purple Fire OR Black Fire Protection Potion Potion #4: Purple Fire OR Black Fire Protection Potion Potion #5: Poison Potion #6: Nettle Wine Potion #7 (Far Right In A Horizontal Line): Poison Drink Potion #3 and Potion #4. P.S.: I spent 72 Minutes of undistracted concentration on this, I'm very disappointed in how long I took. And if this ends up being wrong, FML.
I remember one of them was an ice-potion that would let you travel through the flames, from the riddle i cannot make out which one it was though! nice question @Evan
You were close so I'll give it to you, either 3/4 are "correct" because if you get everything else, it boils down to possible layouts, the only difference being 3 or 4 being forward and the other of the two (4 or 3) is poison, however the back potion is one of the others (hint: 7). I'll leave it open if people want to give it a wack. ~~~ Now! Onto another question... @Aly sent me this and I think it's an excellent holiday themed-question. Question #17 Name the movies based on the picture below! There's 15. Goodluck! I LOVE Christmas movies and I was only able to get 6 off the bat :x
I've double-checked my answer and even applied all the Rules to my answer repeatedly to see if any of the Rules were broken, the answer I gave is not "close" but 100% correct. ^ These parts of the riddle are fundamentally useless because it is basically saying that all Potions are clearly different in size, the largest/smallest Potion doesn't hold death inside (not Poison), and that Potion #2 and Potion #6 are different at first sight (which is obvious due to the just mentioned fact that all Potions are clearly different in size). But there is no visual whatsoever as to how these Potions look like, so the mentioning of any relation of Potion Size to possible Potion Contents have no value. Upon researching the riddle online, it seems like the riddle was supposed to be presented like this: This would make the two riddles completely different. Your "variant" of the riddle is much more difficult and literally only breaks down to one possible outcome (the answer I gave) without "guessing" or having Potions left unknown. Hence, the non-specification of which color flames Potion #3 and #4 are for. But if you were to drink both you'd be safe regardless.
