Would it still be one thousand feet?
Because the 500 shouldn't matter

Answer:

Distance between balloon and point of liftoff is 1118 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

A hot air balloon rises straight up 500 feet. It catches a breeze and is blown west 1000 feet.

Since this phenomenon is three dimensional but I have drawn it in 2 dimensions.

So distance between balloon and the liftoff point will be

x² = 1000² + 500²

x^{2}=10^{6}+0.25(10)^{6}

             = 1.25(10)^{6}

x = \sqrt{1.25(10)^{6} }

  = 1.118×1000

  = 1118 feet

Therefore, distance between balloon from the point of liftoff is 1118 feet

A 4.5 kg cat requires medication at a dose rate of 5 mg/kg once daily for the next 7 days. The tablets are available in 10 mg st
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

<u>Approximately 16 tablets of medicine</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information above , we can use a <u>Rule of Three</u> to first figure out how many mg the cat would need to ingest per day.

\frac{5mg}{1kg} = \frac{x}{4.5kg}

\frac{5mg*4.5kg}{1kg} = 22.5mg

Now we see that the cat needs to take a daily dose of 22.5mg. Since the Tablets come at a strength of 10 mg per tablet then,

22.5 / 10 = 2.25

The cat would need to take 2.25 tablets per day. Since she needs to take the dose for the next 7 days then,

2.25 * 7 = 15.75

She would need to take<u> approximately 16 tablets of medicine</u> during the week .

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

(2p + 7)(3p-9)
2p x 3p= 6p^2
2p x -9= -18p
7 x 3p=21p
7 x -9=-63
6p^2 - 18p + 21p - 63
6p^2 + 3p -63 is the answer.

Studentka2010 [4]
The answer would be: <span>99.0%
</span>
The disease is rare with a prevalence of <span>one out of every thousand people have it. That means, the chance of Roberto has the disease without any test would be 1/1000 or 0.1%
The test sensitivity is 99%, which mean 99% of people with positive test result would have the disease. The chance is should not be influenced by the disease prevalence. </span>
