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.

alexandrea and imani each think of a number. alexandras number is 8 more than Imanis number. the sum of two numbers is 50. what
juin [17]
Alexandera=a
imani=i

a is 8 more than i or
a=8+i

the sum of the 2 numbers is 50 or
a+i=50

a=8+i
so subsitute 8+i for a in a+i=50
8+i+i=50
8+2i=50
subtract 8 from both sides
2i=42
divide both sides by 2
i=21

subsiutte into a=8+i

a=8+21
a=29



a=29
i=21

25 POINTS PLEASE HELP ME!! Sam conjectures that for x ≤ - 2, it is true that x^5 + 7 &gt; x^3. Is Sam’s conjecture correct? Why
CaHeK987 [17]

The true statement about Sam’s conjecture is that the conjecture is not correct

<h3>How to determine if Sam’s conjecture is correct or not?</h3>

Sam’s conjecture is given as:

For x ≤ - 2

It is true that x^5 + 7 > x^3.

The inequality x ≤ - 2 means that the highest value of x is -2

Assume the value of x is -2, then we have:

(-2)^5 + 7 > (-2)^3

Evaluate the exponents

-32 + 7 > -8

Evaluate the sum

-25 > -8

The above inequality is false because -8 is greater than -25 i.e. -8 > -25 or -25 < -8

Hence, the true statement about Sam’s conjecture is that the conjecture is not correct

Answer:

Option (2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

AC is an angle bisector of ∠DAB and ∠DAB

m∠BCA ≅ m∠DCA

m∠BAC ≅ m∠DAC

To Prove:

ΔABC ≅ ΔADC

Solution:

               Statements                                  Reasons

1). m∠BCA ≅ m∠DCA                            1). Given

2). m∠BAC ≅ m∠DAC                           2). Given

3). AC ≅ AC                                            3). Reflexive property

4). ΔABC ≅ ΔADC                                 4). ASA property of congruence

Therefore, Option (2) will be the correct option.
