Answer:

1.176 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Recommended dose

21 mg per day for 6 weeks

Now,

1 week = 7 days

Thus,

number of days in 6 weeks = 6 × 7 = 42 days

Therefore, the total dose = dose per days × number of days

= 21 × 42 = 882 mg

further,

14 mg per day for 2 weeks

Now,

1 week = 7 days

Thus,

number of days in 2 weeks = 2 × 7 = 14 days

Therefore, the total dose = dose per days × number of days

= 14 × 14 = 196 mg

further,

7 mg per day for 2 weeks

Now,

1 week = 7 days

Thus,

number of days in 6 weeks = 2 × 7 = 14 days

Therefore, the total dose = dose per days × number of days

= 7 × 14 = 98 mg

Hence, the total dose = 882 + 196 + 98 = 1176 mg

also,

1 g = 1000 mg

thus,

1176 mg = 1.176 grams

total quantity received during this course is 1.176 grams

PEASE HELP ASAP!!! The sum of two numbers is 58.
agasfer [191]

Answer:

y=15

x=43

(any variable can be used, I used x and y to make it easier to show)

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=58

x-y=28

get x by its self

x=58-y

then subsitute into the other equation

(58-y)-y=28

58-2y=28

-2y=-30

y=15

sub. again

x+15=58

x=43

Jon, Leroy, and Simon are having a free-throw shooting contest. Each boy
Zolol [24]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

If you arrange a statistics in order from least to greatest, the middle number is the median.

If there is even number of numbers in a list, let it be n numbers, then we take the average of n/2th and n/2 + 1 th terms.

Here, all of them have 6 numbers, so 6/2 = 3  and 4th, we take average of 3rd and 4th number to find the median.

Since they are arrange in order we check each:

Jon = average of 6 and 7, (6+7)/2 = 6.5

Leroy = average of 6 and 8,  (6+8)/2 = 7

Simon = average of 5 and 6, (5+6)/2 = 5.5

Leroy's median is the greatest (7).

45 + 57 = x + y<br> x= 37<br> y =?
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

y = 65

Step-by-step explanation:

45 + 57 = x + y

x = 37

45 + 57 = 37 + y

45 + 57 = 102

102 = 37 + y

102 = 37 + y

-37    -37

102 - 37 = 65

37 + y - 37 = y

65 = y

y = 65
