Stimulant, has a paradoxical effect in children, producing calmness in children with hyperactive behavior. The exact mechanism of action is not clearly understood.  Stimulant medications used to treat ADHD can suppress appetite, and the child may lose or fail to gain weight properly. The client is too young to manage his medications independently. Ritalin should be given in divided doses.

Answer:

a) 99.93%

b) 99.98%

Explanation:

Given that:

Total population size was only around 18 individuals ( for  black-footed ferret)

If the annual survival rate in the wild was 0.4%.

a)

What is the probability that all 18 would have died in a single year?

To find that; we multiply the annual survival rate in the wild with the total population; which is:

(0.4%×18) = 0.072%

Then; we subtract it from a total of 100% in order to determine the probability that all 18 would have died in a single year.

= (100.00% - 0.072%)

= 99.93%

b)

What is the probability that all 18 would have died in a single year if canine distemper was present?

Given that;

Because of the presence of canine distemper disease, the annual mortality rate might have been as high as 0.89.

To determine the probability; we have:

1 - Annual mortality rate = annual survival rate

1 - 0.89 = 0.11 %

Therefore, 0.11% of 18 individuals = (0.0011 × 18)

= 0.0198%

Probability that all 18 would have died in a single year if canine distemper was present = 100 - probability of annual survival rate

= (100 - 0.0198)%

= 99.98%
