The amount of medicine required by a patient weighing 102 pounds is 166 milligrams

What is the amount of medicine required per pound of weight?

The amount of medicine required per pound of weight can be determined as the total milligrams of medicine required by the patent divided by the weight of the patient

medicine required per pound of weight=249/153

medicine required per pound of weight=1.62745098 milligrams/pound

1 pound of weight==1.62745098 milligrams

102 pounds of weights=1.62745098 milligrams*102

102 pounds of weights=166 milligrams

Area is a squared number. We know that from the label we use when we solve problems involving area. Perimeter is a single unit label. This single unit label can also be used to find scale factor, since single unit labels are one-to-one. If the area of polygon F is 36, that means that the single unit measure was a number that was squared to get to the area. Same goes for polygon G. That means that in order to find the single unit measure of each of those we have to take the square root of the area. The square root of 36 is 6, and the square root of 4 is 2. 6:2 is the scale factor, but that can be reduced to 3:1, larger to smaller.

The perimeter of an isosceles triangle is 65 centimeters. Find the length of the two equal sides when each is 10 centimeters lon

natita [175]

Answer: the length of each of the two equal sides is 25 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the length of each of the two equal sides. This means that the total length of the two longer sides is 2x.

Let y represent the length of the third side.

The perimeter of a triangle is expressed as the sum of the length of each side of the triangle. The perimeter of the isosceles triangle is 65 centimeters. It means that

2x + y = 65 - - - - - - - - - 1

Each of the equal sides is 10 centimeters longer than the third side. This means that

x = y + 10

Substituting x = y + 10 into equation 1, it becomes

2(y + 10) + y = 65

2y + 20 + y = 65

2y + y = 65 - 20

3y = 45

y = 45/3 = 15

Substituting y = 15 into x = y + 10, it becomes

x = 15 + 10 = 25
