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.

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

\dfrac{14}{75}

Step-by-step explanation:

Gavin made 6 out of 15 shots, so the probability that Gavin's next shot will be  successful is

\dfrac{6}{15}=\dfrac{2}{5}

Jack made 7 out of 15 shots, so the probability that Jack's next shot will be  successful is

\dfrac{7}{15}

The probability that they both make their next shot successfully is

\dfrac{2}{5}\cdot \dfrac{7}{15}=\dfrac{14}{75}
