Hospitals that routinely staff with 1:8 nurse-to-patient ratios experience five additional deaths per 1,000 patients than those

Answer:  480 patient.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the local hospital has decided to follow the 1:4 nurse-to-patient ratio, how many patients can they treat if they have 120 nurses.

Therefore, New ratio of the nurses and patients = 1 : 4

Let the number of nurses = x and number of patients = 4x

Where x is any number,

But, according to question number of nurses = 250

That is, x = 120

⇒ 4x = 4×120 = 480

Therefore, number of patients = 480

Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that all three sides of the given triangle has one tick mark.

This means that all three sides are congruent, meaning that we have an equilateral triangle.

And for equilateral triangles, all three angles are also congruent.

So:

\angle CBA=\angle BAC=\angle ACB

Also, recall that the interior angles of a triangle is always 180. Thus:

\angle CBA+\angle BAC+\angle ACB=180

Substitute:

\angle CBA+\angle CBA+\angle CBA=180

Combine like terms:

3\angle CBA=180

Substitute:

3(6x)=180

Multiply:

18x=180

Thus:

x=10

And we are done!
