According to the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), hospitals that routinely staff with 1:8 nurse-to-patient ra

tios experience five additional deaths per 1,000 patients than those staffing with 1:4 ratios (2002). If 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?

Answer:

They can treat 480 patients if they have 120 nurses?

Step-by-step explanation:

The firt part of the problem gives no relevant information, because we are not asked of how many deaths the particular ratio policy produces,

A ratio is a proportion between two quantities. 1: 4 nurse patient indicate a nurse can treat 4 patients. There fore, using  arule of three we have

1 nurse/ 4 patients * x patients / 120 nurses

x patients = 120 * 4 = 480 patients.

Please help I have no idea how to do this!!!
Ronch [10]

Answer:

You have to graph and label the points

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-5 is just a straight line which is lesser than or equal to -1 so that is a closed circle

-2x+3 is another straight line which is (both open circle) which its domain is restricted from -1 to 4

2 is just a horizontal line starting at (closed circle) 4, it is greater than also.

If you don't understand the the constants (the numbers on their own) just a vertical translation.

If the cross either the x or y axis, you have to find that too, im pretty sure.  

To find the y axis intercept, make x = 0 and solve for y

and to find the x axis intercept, make y = 0 and solve for x

HELP! 10 points!!
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

A: E = 0.05t +56

B: $73.50

C: $60.05

Step-by-step explanation:

A) I'll just explain the equation in one go

Equation: E = 0.05t + 56

0.05 - This is meant to represent the 5% of tips

5% = 5/100

5/100 = 0.05

56 - This is a set value that has been established as a constant, thus it simply needs to be added to the 5%

B+C) Since we already have the equation set up, we just need to plug in the variable, t.

B) E = 0.05(350) + 56

= 17.5 + 56

= 73.50

C) E = 0.05(81) + 56

= 4.05 + 56

= 60.05

Hope that does something to help, even though this was posted a while ago
