Answer:

q8h dosage = 112.5mg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Child Weight = 22.5 kg

Daily Intravenous Dosage = 40mg/kg

Type of Dose = q8h

Required

Calculate the q8h per dose

We start by calculating the total daily dosage in mg

This is calculated by multiplying the child weight by the intravenous dosage

Daily Dosage = 22.5kg * 40mg/kg

Daily Dosage = 900mg

This implies that the body weight requires 900 mg daily

Next is to calculate the q8h dosage

q8h means every 8 hours.

q8h dosage = 900mg/8

q8h dosage = 112.5mg

Willie changes the quadratic function f(x)=x2?6x+14 to vertex form f(x)=a(x?h)2+k. If Willie does this correctly, what is the va

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The value of k is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know we can convert function's quadratic form to vertex form by completing the square.

f(x)=x2?6x+14

We will add and subtract 9 to our equation in order to complete the square.

$1(x^{2} ?6x+9)-9+14$

Upon completing the square and combining like terms we will get,

$1(x?3)^{2} +5$

Upon comparing Willie's vertex form with our expression we can see that k is 5.

Therefore, the value of k is 5.
