b. The safe daily dosage range is between 2494760 units /day and 6236900 units/day

c. Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Lets see the convertion from lb to Kg:

  • 1 Lb= 0.453592
  • 55 lb = 0.453592*55= 24.9476 kg

b. Minimum daily dosage is 100,000 units /kg

  • For this kid: 100,000 * 24.9476= 2,494,760 units/ day
  • in 6 dosis; 2494760/6= 415,793.33 units every 4 hours

Maximun daily dosage is 250,000 units /kg

  • For this kid: 250,000 * 24.9476= 6,236,900 units/ day
  • in 6 dosis; 6,236,900/6= 1,039,483.33 units every 4 hours

c: Yes, because 525.000 units every 4 hours is between the minimun and maximun dosaje for this kid

You by a t shirt at the fair that costs the owner $12,but your markup is 30%. Tax is 7%. How much money do you owe
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

The final price of money of t shirt that I own = $ 16.69

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in question as ,

The t shirt cost to the owner = $12

The markup percentage = 30%

So, now the cost price of t shirt = 30% of 12 + 12

                                                    = 3.6 + 12 = $15.6

Tax which is added now            = 7%

So, new cost of t shirt = 7% of 15.6 + 15.6

                                     = 1.092 + 15.6  =$ 16.69

Hence , the final price of money of t shirt that I own = $ 16.69   Answer

23 20' 48" is the same as _____. <br><br> Round to the nearest hundredth of a degree.
pentagon [3]
23° 20' 48" in degrees

Minutes are 1/60 of a degree and seconds 1/60 of a minute.

Let's convert the 48" to minutes.
48/60 = 0.8

23° 20' 48" ⇒ 23° 20.8'

Let's convert the 20.8' to degrees.
20.8/60 ≈ 0.3466667

23° 20.8' ⇒ 23.35°

ale4655 [162]
8 feet is the longest side so it would be the hypotenuse. Use the Pythagorean formula to check.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
3^2+5^2 = 8^2
9 + 25 = 64
34 = 64
This is obviously not true si it is not a right triangle.
