A certain medicine is given in an amount proportional to a patient's body weight. Suppose a patient weighing 104 pounds requires

104 / 169 = x / 224.25......104 lbs to 169 mg = x lbs to 224.25 mg
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(169)(x) = (104)(224.25)
169x = 23322
x = 23322 / 169
x = 138 lbs <==

Find the equation of the line.
Stells [14]

To find the equation of the line, we need to figure out the slope and y-intercept.

To find the y-intercept, look at the number where the line intersects the y-axis. The number is 5. The equation so far is y = ?x + 5.

We still didn't figure out the slope yet. To figure out the slope, pick two points. Use the rise over run method. It is in the image below. The line is going up to the left, so the slope will be negative. Now we know the slope is -1/3. The equation now that we figured out the slope is y = -1/3x + 5.

I hope this helps you! Let me know if I got something wrong.

Please help with an explanation!
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

6 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Easier way to solve: If she takes 7 quizzes each week, 7 times something (amount of weeks) equals 42.

7 X <u>6</u> = 42

Solving with algebra: We know that hanna takes six quizzes a week and takes a total of 42 quizzes, therefore the unknown (x) is the amount of weeks she takes the quizzes.

Amount of weeks X amount of tests per weeks = 42 quizzes

<em>x </em>X 7 = 42

42/7 = 6

The circle with center O has a minor arc BSA with a length of
tangare [24]

Answer:

D. \frac{27\pi}{2} inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the circle with center O has a minor arc BSA with a length of 3\pi^{2} inches. The central angle is 40°.

To find the circumference of circle we will use formula:

\frac{\text{Central angle}}{2\pi}=\frac{\text{Arc length}}{2\pi r}, where 2\pi= measure of 360 degrees in radians and 2\pi r= circumference of circle.  

Let us convert measure of central angle into radians.                        

40^{o}=\frac{40*\pi}{180} =\frac{2\pi}{9}

Upon substituting our given value in the formula we will get,        

\frac{\frac{2\pi}{9}}{2\pi}=\frac{\frac{3\pi}{2}}{2\pi r}

\frac{2\pi}{18\pi}=\frac{3\pi}{4\pi r}    

\frac{1}{9}=\frac{3}{4r}      

Cross multiplying we will get,      

4r=27  

r=\frac{27}{4}

Hence, the radius of our circle is 27/4 inches.  

Since the circumference of circle is 2\pi r. Upon substituting  r=\frac{27}{4} we will get,

2\pi r=2\pi* \frac{27}{4}=\frac{27\pi}{2}

Therefore, circumference of our given circle will be \frac{27\pi}{2} inches and option D is the correct choice.

The volume V (in cubic feet) of a right cylinder with a height of 3 feet and radius r (in feet) is given by V=3πr2. Solve the fo
Kitty [74]

Answer:

r=\sqrt{\frac{V}{3\pi}}\\\\r\approx 5.00\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

-The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula:

V=3\pi r^2

#We make r the subject of the formula:

V=3\pi r^2\\\\r^2=\frac{V}{3\pi}\\\\r=\sqrt{\frac{V}{3\pi}}

#We then substitute for the stated volume and solve for r:

r=\sqrt{\frac{V}{3\pi}}, V=236\\\\\therefore r=r=\sqrt{\frac{236}{3\pi}}\\\\r=5.00404\approx\ 5.00\ ft

Hence, the cylinder's radius is approximately 5.00 ft

Each calendar will sell for $5 each write an equatio to model the total income for selling calendars
Brrunno [24]
To answer the question above, I let x be the number of calendars sold. You may use any other letter as this is just for representation. The total income generated in selling calendars is calculated by multiplying the number of calendars with the price. That is,
                                   total income = 5x
If we let total income be y, our equation is further simplified into, 
                                            y = 5x
