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.

den301095 [7]

Answer:

Option (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 main branches of statistics. They are:

1. Descriptive Statistics

2. Inferential Statistics

Descriptive statistics describes the characteristics of observed subjects or items while Inferential statistics makes inferences, based on given or derived data.

Inferential Statistics allow you to decide whether a difference between the experimental group and control group is due to <u>manipulation or chance.</u>

<u />

The Experimental group is the group that an effect is tested on while the Control group is the group that is left untested or uninfluenced. Inferential statistics allow you to decide whether a difference between these 2 groups is due to

- manipulation or interference by any force (which may be the experimenter/researcher)

or

- probability which is chance.

A technician charges P 400 per hour and spends P 500 a day on gasoline. Write an alcat expression to represent his earnings for
Basile [38]

Answer:

y=400*x-500

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression that represents the problem is:

y=400*x-500

Function y represents earnings for one day.

400 is the fixed number that is charge for one hour work

x represents the number of hours that the technician has worked for one day

To find the total earnings you should multiply the fixed charge for one hour work (400) by the number of hours worked in a day.

Then you need to substract the cost of gasoline in a day, it is 500 and it is a constant in the equation since it doesn't depend on the number of hours worked.

So, the function is:

y=400*x-500
