In the process of a medical procedure, a technician injects a small amount of a radioactive mineral into the patient's bloodstream. The amount of the mineral remaining in the bloodstream (in milligrams per milliliter) \( t \) days after the initial injection is approximated by \( C(t)=\frac{1}{2}(4 t+4)^{-1 / 2} \). a. Find the rate of change of the mineral level with respect to time when the initial injection is administered (after 0 days). Include units.
