3 0

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

2a - b : 2a + b = 1 : 2

2a - b = 1

-                         Elimination

2a + b = 2

-b - (b) = -1

-2b = -1

b = 0.5

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2a + b = 2           Substitution

2a + 0.5 = 2

2a = 1.5

a = 0.75

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

a:b

0.75 : 0.5

or

3/4 : 1/2

Hope this helps!!!

A physician orders 140mg of a medication to give orally. You have 125mg/5mL on hand. What is the correct dose of medication to g
adelina 88 [10]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: The correct dose of medication to give is 5.6 mL

<h2>Why?</h2>

To solve this problem we need to establish a relationship between the prescripted medication and the available solution.

Let's write the needed equations to establish the relantionship:

\frac{125mg}{5mL}=1\\\\125mg=5mL

The available solution means 125 mg each 5 mL of solution, so:

\frac{125mg}{5mL}=\frac{140mg}{x}\\\\x*\frac{125mg}{5mL}=140mg\\\\x=140mg*\frac{5ml}{125mg}=\frac{700mg*mL}{125mg}=5.6mL

Hence, the correct dose of medication to give is 5.6 mL of the 125 mg/5mL solution.

Have a nice day!

Sin 33°= 7/x<br> A. 5.9<br> B. 12.9<br> C. 10.8<br> D. 8.3
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation to solve is:

Sin(33)=\frac{7}{x}

Sin 33 has a value in the calculator. We simply cross multiply and do algebra and solve:

Sin(33)=\frac{7}{x}\\Sin(33)*x=7\\x=\frac{7}{Sin(33)}\\x=12.85

Rounding to 1 decimal place, we have:

12.85 = 12.9

Answer choice B is right.
