Answer:

His daily dosage is 199.6 mg divided in four doses of 49.9 mg. The Nurse needs to draw 2.495 mL from a medicine that comes in 100mg/5mL.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the daily dose we first need to find the mass of the Patient in kg. To do that we need to divide his weigh in lbs by 2.205.

weigh = \frac{22}{2.205} = 9.98 \text{ kg}

Since he needs to take 20 mg of drug per kg of body in a day, we need to multiply his weigh by this dosage:

\text{daily dosage} = 9.98*20 = 199.6 \text{ mg}

Each individual dose must be \frac{1}{4} of his daily dose, so:

\text{each dose} = \frac{199.6}{4} = 49.9 \text{ mg}

Since the medicine comes in 100mg /5 mL, the nurse needs:

\text{volume of dose} = \frac{49.9}{100}*5 = 2.495 \text{ mL}

The value of 33+4⋅(52−42)
joja [24]

We will use order of operations (PEMDAS) to solve this.

1.) 33+4(52-42) This is our equation. So, first we are gonna subtract 42 from 52.

2.) 33+4(10) Now that we did that, we are gonna add 4 to 33.

3.) 37(10) Lastly we are gonna multiply 37 by 10.

The answer is gonna be 370. If this helped, maybe consider giving me brainliest :)

If 13cos theta -5=0 find sin theta +cos theta / sin theta -cos theta​
Ivahew [28]

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Need to FinD :</h3>

  • We have to find the value of (sinθ + cosθ)/(sinθ - cosθ), when 13 cosθ - 5 = 0.

\red{\frak{Given}} \begin{cases} & \sf {13\ cos \theta\ -\ 5\ =\ 0\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \big\lgroup Can\ also\ be\ written\ as \big\rgroup} \\ & \sf {cos \theta\ =\ {\footnotesize{\dfrac{5}{13}}}} \end{cases}

Here, we're asked to find out the value of (sinθ + cosθ)/(sinθ - cosθ), when 13 cosθ - 5 = 0. In order to find the solution we're gonna use trigonometric ratios to find the value of sinθ and cosθ. Let us consider, a right angled triangle, say PQR.

Where,

  • PQ = Opposite side
  • QR = Adjacent side
  • RP = Hypotenuse
  • ∠Q = 90°
  • ∠C = θ

As we know that, 13 cosθ - 5 = 0 which is stated in the question. So, it can also be written as cosθ = 5/13. As per the cosine ratio, we know that,

\rightarrow {\underline{\boxed{\red{\sf{cos \theta\ =\ \dfrac{Adjacent\ side}{Hypotenuse}}}}}}

Since, we know that,

  • cosθ = 5/13
  • QR (Adjacent side) = 5
  • RP (Hypotenuse) = 13

So, we will find the PQ (Opposite side) in order to estimate the value of sinθ. So, by using the Pythagoras Theorem, we will find the PQ.

Therefore,

\red \bigstar {\underline{\underline{\pmb{\sf{According\ to\ Question:-}}}}}

\rule{200}{3}

\sf \dashrightarrow {(PQ)^2\ +\ (QR)^2\ =\ (RP)^2} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {(PQ)^2\ +\ (5)^2\ =\ (13)^2} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {(PQ)^2\ +\ 25\ =\ 169} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {(PQ)^2\ =\ 169\ -\ 25} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {(PQ)^2\ =\ 144} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {PQ\ =\ \sqrt{144}} \\ \\ \\ \dashrightarrow {\underbrace{\boxed{\pink{\frak{PQ\ (Opposite\ side)\ =\ 12}}}}_{\sf \blue{\tiny{Required\ value}}}}

∴ Hence, the value of PQ (Opposite side) is 12. Now, in order to determine it's value, we will use the sine ratio.

\rightarrow {\underline{\boxed{\red{\sf{sin \theta\ =\ \dfrac{Opposite\ side}{Hypotenuse}}}}}}

Where,

  • Opposite side = 12
  • Hypotenuse = 13

Therefore,

\sf \rightarrow {sin \theta\ =\ \dfrac{12}{13}}

Now, we have the values of sinθ and cosθ, that are 12/13 and 5/13 respectively. Now, finally we will find out the value of the following.

\rightarrow {\underline{\boxed{\red{\sf{\dfrac{sin \theta\ +\ cos \theta}{sin \theta\ -\ cos \theta}}}}}}

  • By substituting the values, we get,

\rule{200}{3}

\sf \dashrightarrow {\dfrac{sin \theta\ +\ cos \theta}{sin \theta\ -\ cos \theta}\ =\ {\footnotesize{\dfrac{\Big( \dfrac{12}{13}\ +\ \dfrac{5}{13} \Big)}{\Big( \dfrac{12}{13}\ -\ \dfrac{5}{13} \Big)}}}} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {\dfrac{sin \theta\ +\ cos \theta}{sin \theta\ -\ cos \theta}\ =\ {\footnotesize{\dfrac{\dfrac{17}{13}}{\dfrac{7}{13}}}}} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {\dfrac{sin \theta\ +\ cos \theta}{sin \theta\ -\ cos \theta}\ =\ \dfrac{17}{13} \times \dfrac{13}{7}} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {\dfrac{sin \theta\ +\ cos \theta}{sin \theta\ -\ cos \theta}\ =\ \dfrac{17}{\cancel{13}} \times \dfrac{\cancel{13}}{7}} \\ \\ \\ \dashrightarrow {\underbrace{\boxed{\pink{\frak{\dfrac{sin \theta\ +\ cos \theta}{sin \theta\ -\ cos \theta}\ =\ \dfrac{17}{7}}}}}_{\sf \blue{\tiny{Required\ value}}}}

∴ Hence, the required answer is 17/7.
