Mg required per pound = 249/153 = 1.63mg

Therefore medicine required=  102 *1.63= 166.26g

Answer: 166 milligrams

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A certain medicine is given in an amount proportional to a patient's body weight.

A patient weighing 153 pounds requires 249 milligrams of medicine.

Let x be the amount of medicine required by a patient weighing 102 pounds, then we have the following equation:-

\dfrac{x}{102}=\dfrac{249}{153}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{249\times102}{153}=166

Hence, the amount of medicine required by a patient weighing 102 pounds = 166 milligrams.

Which sequences of transformations confirm the congruence of shape II and shape I?
mylen [45]

Answer:

1. When we reflect the shape I along X axis it will take the shape I in first quadrant, and then if we rotate the shape I by 90° clockwise, it will take the shape again in second quadrant . So we are not getting shape II. This Option is Incorrect.

2. Second Option is correct , because by reflecting the shape I across  X axis and then by 90° counterclockwise rotation will take the Shape I in second quadrant ,where we are getting shape II.

3. a reflection of shape I across the y-axis followed by a 90° counterclockwise rotation about the origin takes the shape I in fourth Quadrant. →→ Incorrect option.

4. This option is correct, because after reflecting the shape through Y axis ,and then rotating the shape through an angle of 90° in clockwise direction takes it in second quadrant.

5. A reflection of shape I across the x-axis followed by a 180° rotation about the origin takes the shape I in third quadrant.→→Incorrect option
