The correct answer is 16737 mg

Explanation:

The first step to solve this problem is to convert the weight to kilograms because the dosage of the antibiotic is given in milligrams per kilo. This can be done by multiplying the pounds by 0.453 considering each pound is equal to 0.453 kilos. The process is shown below:

123 lb x 0.453 = 55.791 kg

Now, simply multiply the kilos by the recommended dose:

55.791 kg x 300 mg/kg = 16737 mg

Also, this can be converted to grams by dividing the number into 1000 (1000 mg = 1 g)

16737mg ÷ 1000 =  16.737 grames

He can make 32 sandwiches. Since he uses 1/8 pound of cheese for each sandwich, he can make 8 sandwiches using 1 pound of cheese (1/8 x 8 = 1). Now that you know he can make 8 sandwiches with 1 pound of cheese, multiply 8 (this is the sandwiches) by 4 (pounds of cheese).

Dominik [7]

Based on the circles shown in the diagram attached above, the line segments that must have the same length as segment AB are:

  1. Segment BC.
  2. Segment CD.

<h3>What is a circle?</h3>

A circle can be defined as a closed, two-dimensional curved geometric shape with no edges or corners. Also, a circle refers to the set of all points in a plane that are located at a fixed distance (radius) from a fixed point (central axis).

<h3>The equation of a circle.</h3>

Mathematically, the standard form of the equation of a circle is given by;

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

Where:

  • h and k represents the coordinates at the center.
  • r represents the radius of a circle.

<h3>What is a line segment?</h3>

A line segment can be defined as the part of a line in a geometric figure such as a triangle, circle, quadrilateral, etc., that is bounded by two (2) distinct points and it typically has a fixed length.

Based on the circles shown in the diagram attached above, the line segments that must have the same length as segment AB are:

  1. Segment BC.
  2. Segment CD.
