The BAC of the female is an illustration of proportion

The BAC after consuming the three drinks is 0.029w
The BAC three hours after consuming the drinks is 0.087 w

<h3>How to calculate the BAC?</h3>

BAC is calculated using:

BAC = Alcohol consumed/(Body Weight * R)

The weight is given as:

Body weight = 140 lb

Convert to kg

Body weight = 63.5 kg

For female

R = 0.55

So, we have:

BAC = Alcohol/(63.5 * 0.55)

BAC = Alcohol/34.925

BAC = 0.029Alcohol

The weight or volume of the alcohol consumed is given.

So, we represent it with w.

BAC = 0.029w

Hence, the BAC after consuming the three drinks is 0.029w

<h3>How to calculate the BAC after 3 hours?</h3>

We have:

BAC1 = 0.029w

Time (t) = 3 hours

The BAC after 3 hours is

BAC = BAC1 * (t - 0.015)

So, we have:

BAC = 0.029w * (3 - 0.015)

Evaluate the product

BAC = 0.087w

Hence, the BAC three hours after consuming the drinks is 0.087 w

Convert 8.132132132... to a rational expression in the form of a over b where b ≠ 0.

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

$\frac{2708}{333}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$0.132132132...=\frac{132}{999}=\frac{44}{333} \\\\8+0.132132132=8+\frac{44}{333}\\\\=\frac{8(333)}{333}+\frac{44}{333}\\\\=\frac{2664}{333}+\frac{44}{333}\\\\=\frac{2708}{333}$

I have a practice problem in the calculus subject, I’m having trouble solving it properly

Ainat [17]

The limit of a function is the value that a function approaches as that function's inputs get closer and closer to some number.

The question asks us to estimate from the table:

$\lim _{x\to-2}g(x)$

To find the limit of g(x) as x tends to -2, we need to check the trend of the function as we head towards -2 from both negative and positive infinity.

From negative infinity, the closest value we can get to before -2 is -2.001 according to the values given in the table. The value of g(x) from the table is:

$\lim _{x\to-2^+}g(x)=8.02$

From positive infinity, the closest value we can get to before -2 is -1.999 according to the values given in the table. The value of g(x) from the table is:

$\lim _{x\to-2^-}g(x)=8.03$

From the options, the closest estimate for the limit is 8.03.

The correct option is the SECOND OPTION.
