The person who administers the drug will deliver:

2.956 ml or approximately, 3mls of the drug.

<h3>How is dosage administration calculated?</h3>

Dosage administration is calculated by the formula:

D/H × Q = X

Where;

D = Amount of the drug ordered by the physician

H = Dosage strength or the supply currently available

Q = Unit being measured

X = The unknown dosage

Now, or the figures are converted to ml

50 mg = 0.05 ml

4 g = 4ml

8 oz = 236.56 ml

Plugging these into the formula, the unknown quantity, X will be

= 0.05 ml/ 4m × 236.56 ml

= 2.956 ml.

answer:

$x = - 2 \\ y = 2 \\ \\ ( - 2, \: 2)$

explanation:

$y = - \frac{1}{2} x + 1 \\ y = 2x + 6 \\ first \: equation \: add \: \frac{1}{2} from \: both \\ sides \\ \\ second \: equation \: subtract \: 2x \: from \\ both \: sides \\ \\ y + \frac{1}{2} x = 1 \\ y - 2x = 6 \\ solve \: the \: first \: equation \\ \\ y + \frac{1}{2} x = 1 \\ subtract \: \frac{x}{2} from \: both \: sides \\ \\ y = - \frac{1}{2} x + 1 \\ substitute \: - \frac{x}{2} + 1 \: for \: y \: in \: the \\ other \: equation \\ \\ - \frac{1}{2} x + 1 - 2x = 6 \\ add \: \frac{1}{2} x \: to \: 2x \\ \\ - \frac{5}{2} x + 1 = 6 \\ subtract \: 1 \: from \: both \: sides \\ \\ - \frac{5}{2} x = 5 \\ divide \: both \: sides \: by \: - \frac{5}{2} \\ \\ x = - 2 \\ substitute \: the \: value \: of \: x \: into \\ an \: equation \\ \\ y = - \frac{1}{2} ( - 2) + 1 \\ distribute \\ \\ y = 1 + 1 \\ add \\ \\ y = 2 \\ \\ ( - 2, \: 2)$
