<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>It can create confusion with English system or SI system leading to fatal consequences</u>

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

A healthcare professional might have studied the SI system in his college studies and he might be using metric system in hospital. This sort of errors may lead to fatal results for example if a weight machine records weight in kg and the healthcare professional is more familiar with pounds then it can produce big mistakes because he might take weight into pounds and lead to death of patient. For example, a weight may be entered into electronic health record as 35 kilograms (the equivalent of 77 pounds) rather than the actual weight of 35 pounds so it can cause serious issues.

How much grain can this container hold?
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

953.78 in^3 of grain.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder = π r^2 h.

For this cylinder r =  radius of the base = 9/2

= 4.5 in  and the height h = 15 in

So the volume is 3.14 * 4.5^2 * 15

= 953.78 in^3.

Multiple or divide as indicated 2x/4x+2 x 14 x+7/6
otez555 [7]
<span>2x/4x+2 x 14 x+7/6 is unclear.  Do you mean 2/4x, or do you mean  2x
                                                                                                           --------  ??
                                                                                                            4x+2
Use parentheses to make things clearer.

I will assume that you meant to write

   2x
--------- * 14x + 7/6
4x + 2

but am very much unsure if this is correct or not.



Perhaps you meant 

</span>2x/(4x+2) times 14(x+7/6)
<span>
This comes out as follows:

 2x * 14 (x + 7/6)        28x(x + 7/6)        14x(x + 7/6) 
------------------------ = ------------------- = --------------------
       4x+2                        2(2x + 1)              2x + 1         after reduction.

Performing the multiplication, we get            14x^2 + 98/6
                                                                     --------------------
                                                                              2x+1
</span>  

It appears that you're using "x" both as a variable name and as the "multiply" operator.  If so, please don't!  Use " * " to indicate multiplication.
<span>
</span>Please take and share a screen shot of this problem.

The hocky team won 63 out of 84 games what percent of the games did the team win?​
Ronch [10]

Answer:

75%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how much percent of the team won, you have the event over the sample space.

So n(E)/n(S) = 63/84 = 3/4 = 0.75 = 75%
