( - 10, - 22 )

using the midpoint formula,

let the other endpoint have coordinates (x, y) then

$\frac{1}{2}$ (2 + x ) = - 4 ( multiply through by 2 )

2 + x = - 8 ( subtract 2 from both sides ) then

x = -8 - 2 = - 10 ← value of x-coordinate

Similarly for y-coordinate

$\frac{1}{2}$ (8 + y ) = - 7 ( multiply through by 2 )

8 + y = - 14 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

y = - 14 - 8 = - 22 ← y -coordinate

the other endpoint is ( - 10, - 22 )

If a physician order is 25% dextrose 1000 mL and all you have is 70% dextrose 1000 mL and 5% dextrose how much 70% dextrose will

miskamm [114]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 1000ml Of Dextrose 25% is needed to be produced from Dextrose 70%. Let us assume that x ml of Dextrose 70% is mixed with a Dextrose 5% to get 1000 ml of Dextrose 25%. Hence:

The amount of Dextrose 5% = 1000 ml - x ml = 1000 - x

25% of 1000 ml = 70% of x + 5% of (1000 - x)

25000 = 70x + 5000 - 5x

Simplifying gives:

65x = 25000 - 5000

65x = 20000

x = 308 ml

Therefore 308 ml of Dextrose 70% was mixed with 692 ml of Dextrose 5% to produce 1000 ml of Dextrose 25%.

Simplify the following expression:

Phantasy [73]

$\frac{4}{ \frac{1}{4} - \frac{5}{2} }$

To begin, we can simplify the expression's denominator by finding a common denominator between the denominators of the fractions in the denominator. To make them compatible, we can convert $\frac{5}{2}$ into $\frac{10}{4}$ :

$\frac{4}{ \frac{1}{4} - \frac{5}{2}( \frac{2}{2}) } = \frac{4}{ \frac{1}{4} - \frac{10}{4} }$

Next, we can simplify:

$\frac{4}{ \frac{1}{4} - \frac{10}{4} } = \frac{4}{ -\frac{9}{4}}$

Finally, to cancel the denominator within the denominator, we can multiply the whole expression by $\frac{4}{4}$ , or 1:

$\frac{4}{ -\frac{9}{4}}* \frac{4}{4} = -\frac{16}{9}$

The expression simplifies to $-\frac{16}{9}$ , or $-1 \frac{7}{9}$ as a mixed number.
