Answer:

B) (35, 260)

Step-by-step explanation:

A veterinarian will prescribe an antibiotic to a dog based on its weight. The effective dosage of the antibiotic is given by d ≥ 1∕5w2, where d is dosage in milligrams and w is the dog's weight in pounds. Which of the following ordered pairs gives an effective dosage of antibiotics for a 35-pound dog?

A) (35, 240)

B) (35, 260)

C) (260, 35)

D) (240, 35)

Ordered pairs is composed of pairs, usually an x coordinate and a y coordinate. It refers to a location of a point on the coordinate. It matches numbers to functions or relations.

Given the relation between d is dosage in milligrams and w is the dog's weight in pounds as d ≥ 1∕5w²

For a 35 pound dog (i.e w = 35 pound). The dosage is given as:

d ≥ 1∕5(35)² ≥ 245 milligrams.

For an ordered pair (x, y), x is the independent variable (input) and y is the dependent variable (output).

The dog weight is the independent variable and the dosage is the dependent variable.

From the ordered pairs, the best option is (35, 260) because 260 ≥ 240

Mary Ann needs 3/7 cup of sugar to bake a cake she has 3/5 cup does she have enough to bake the cake yes or no
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Mary Ann does have enough sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

3/5 is greater than 3/7 which means that she does have enough sugar. This is because the denominator 5 is smaller than the denominator 7, and since they have the same numerator, the fraction with the smaller denominator is greater.
