b) The maximum concentration is about

c) Increasing the “5” vertically stretches the graph. Decreasing
the “5” vertically compresses the graph. Changing the sign of the
“5” flips the graph about the x-axis. Increasing the “0.01”
vertically compresses the graph and shifts the maximum to the left.
Decreasing the “0.01” vertically stretches the graph and shifts the
maximum to the right.
