Answer:

  274 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

Often medical solutions expressed as a percentage are not really a percentage as such. A percentage is the ratio of two quantities with the same units.

Here, the context given by the problem suggests the "25%" solution is really (25 g)/(100 mL). That is, the units are grams and milliliters--different units.

With that assumption, we want to find the volume (v) of solution needed to deliver 6 g of medicine. An appropriate proportion* is ...

  v/(6 g) = (100 mL)/(25 g)

  v = (6 g)(100 mL)/(25 g) = 24 mL

So, the total volume of the infusion is ...

  250 mL +24 mL = 274 mL

_____

* The concentration is given in terms of g/mL, but we have used a proportion that is mL/g. The reason for that is we want the variable to be in the numerator of the ratio. The variable here represents volume, so we have written the proportion with volumes in the numerators.

Having the variable in the numerator means the equation can be solved in one step--by multiplying by its denominator.

A tourist purchases a car in england and ships it home to the united states. the car sticker advertised that the car's fuel cons
Valentin [98]

<u>Solution-</u>

Fuel consumption rate = 40 miles per UK gallon (As the car is manufactured in UK)

1 UK gallon = 4.5459631 lit

1 US gallon = 3.7853060 lit

\therefore \frac{1 \ UK \ gallon}{1 \ US \ gallon} = \frac{4.5459631}{3.7853060} = 1.2009499

\Rightarrow 1 \ UK \ gallon = 1.2009499 \ US \ gallon

As the fuel consumption rate = 40 miles per gallon

⇒ You need 1 UK gallon of fuel to go 40 miles

⇒ You need 1.2009499 US gallon of fuel to go 40 miles

Or you can say that, to go 40 miles you need 1.2009499 US gallon of fuel

⇒ To go 1 mile you will need  \frac{1.2009499}{40} = 0.0300237

⇒ To go 738 miles you will need 0.0300237×738 = 22.1574906 US gallon of fuel

∴ 22.1574906 gallon of fuel is actually required.

∴ But, what she thinks will require is \frac{738}{40} = 18.45 gallons (As she calculated using UK gallons)

Please help me with this
sesenic [268]
Ok so the average is 50

average of x number of things is
(add value of all things)/x=average

4 test scores needed
so divide by 4
3 test scores ar known
average is 50
x= missing score

(43+48+42+x)/4=50
times 4 both sides
133+x=200
minus 133 both sides
x=67

a score of 67 is needed
