Answer:

Following a single dose, 0.02mg of the drug is detected.

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage problems can be solved as a rule of three problem.

In a rule of three problem, the first step is identifying the measures and how they are related, if their relationship is direct of inverse.

When the relationship between the measures is direct, as the value of one measure increases, the value of the other measure is going to increase too. In this case, the rule of three is a cross multiplication.

When the relationship between the measures is inverse, as the value of one measure increases, the value of the other measure will decrease. In this case, the rule of three is a line multiplication.

Calculate the quantity of drug detected, in milligrams, following a single dose.

The quantity is 0.02% of 100mg. So:

100mg - 100%

xmg - 0.02%

100x = 100*0.02

x = \frac{100*0.02}{100}

x = 0.02mg

Following a single dose, 0.02mg of the drug is detected.

How do you find The area of an irregular shape
charle [14.2K]
Regular shapes are shapes that have sides that are all equal and interior angles are also equal.

Irregular shapes are shapes that vary in the measurement of sides and interior angles.

To find the area of an irregular shape, break it down into various regular shape and individually compute its area. Add up all the area of the regular shapes formed from the irregular shape to get the area of the irregular shape.

An example of an irregular shape is the outline of a house. 

Pointed roof over a square room. There are two regular shapes found in this irregular shape. A square and a triangle. Compute its individual area and add up these two areas to get the area of the house.

Why do the inequality signs stay the same in the last two steps of exercise 1
MrRissso [65]
The only reason an inequality would change would be because a number is divided or multiplied by a negative number. So if it stayed the same, then it would be because there was no division or multiplication by a negative number. Hope I helped :)

What is the answer to 1/8(8x+15)=24
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

x = 177/8

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we must get rid of the fraction by multiplying 8 by both sides.

8 · 1/8(8x + 15) = 24 · 8

1(8x + 15) = 192

8x + 15 = 192

Then we simplify. First subtract 15 from both sides.

8x + 15 - 15 = 192 - 15

8x = 177

Then divide 8 from both sides.

8x/8 = 177/8

x = 177/8
