Approximately 0.02% of a 100-mg dose of the drug miglitol (Glyset) has been shown to appear in human breast milk. Calculate the

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

Answer:
The dimensions of the can that will minimize the cost are a Radius of 3.17cm and a Height of 12.67cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of the Cylinder=400 cm³
Volume of a Cylinder=πr²h
Therefore: πr²h=400
Total Surface Area of a Cylinder=2πr²+2πrh
Cost of the materials for the Top and Bottom=0.06 cents per square centimeter
Cost of the materials for the sides=0.03 cents per square centimeter
Cost of the Cylinder=0.06(2πr²)+0.03(2πrh)
C=0.12πr²+0.06πrh
Recall:
Therefore:
The minimum cost occurs when the derivative of the Cost =0.
r=3.17 cm
Recall that:
h=12.67cm
The dimensions of the can that will minimize the cost are a Radius of 3.17cm and a Height of 12.67cm.
Answer:
There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a linear correlation between the heights and pulse rates of women
Step-by-step explanation:
The correlation coefficient between the variables h(height in inches) and pulse rates (in beats per minute) is 0.202
Sample size n=40
Level of significane alpha = 0.01
Create null and alternate hypothesis as:
H0: r=0
Ha: r not equal 0
(Two tailed test at 1% significance level)
Sample r = 0.202
r difference = 0.202
test statistic t =
df =n-2 =38
t critical value for 0.01 and df =38 is 2.704
Since our test statistic lies below 2.704, we accept null hypothesis
There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a linear correlation between the heights and pulse rates of women
