(5/8) * (4/7) + 45 * .05 = 2.60714285714
Answer:
11.95 g / 6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
drug dosage = 460 mg per kg per day
to be administered every 6 hours to a person who weighs 229 pounds
1 pound = 0.453592 kg
229 pounds = 229 × 1 pound = 229 × 0.453592 kg = 103.873 kg
dosage of drug needed for 103.873 kg
460 mg is to 1 kg per day
103.873 kg = 103.873 × 460 mg per 1 kg per day = 47781.58 mg per 103.873 kg per day
number of 6 hours in a day = 24 hours ÷ 6 hours = 4 times per day
dosage needed per 6 hours
47781.58 ÷ 4 = 11945.395 mg for every 6 hours = 11.95 g / 6 hours
This requires 2 pints of oil.
Using a proportion to solve this, we have:

Cross multiplying, we have
1/2*10 = (2 1/2)*x
5 = (2 1/2)x
Divide both sides by 2 1/2:
5÷(2 1/2) = (2 1/2)x÷(2 1/2)
2 = x
(a) Without solving the equation we can't determine whether its true or false.
(b) If x = 3
4x + 1 = 2x + 5
4(3) + 1 = 2(3) + 5
12 + 1 = 15 + 5
13 = 20
No, if x = 3, the equation will not be true.
(c) 4x + 1 = 2x + 5
4x - 2x = 5 - 1
2x = 4
x = 4/2
x = 2
This shows that x = 2 makes the equation true.
Assume L=1.5W, where W=width, L= Length of the triangle.
Therefore,
Perimeter (P) = 2(W+L) = 2(W+1.5W) = 2(2.5W) = 5W=20 => W=20/5 = 4 in
Then, L=1.5W = 1.5*4 = 6 in
Area, A= L*W = 6*4 = 24 in^2
