Certain diseases, such as bovine spongiform encephalopathy (mad cow disease), are caused by prions - misfolded proteins. These prions are irreversibly misfolded and cause subsequent misfolding of healthy proteins when they come into contact with them. Joe ate the meat of a cow with BSE, ingesting prions, and each prion caused the misfolding of a new protein every number of hours, is illustrated by the following function.

where is how many misfolded proteins are present after hours.

What is the function for ?

An particular medicine, has a half-life of about hours. If a patient was administered of the drug at , how much is left at ?
