A patient weighs 93 pounds (lb). Meperidine hydrochloride is ordered for pain at a dosage of 6 milligrams (mg) per kilogram of b

ody weight in a 24-hour period. Meperidine hydrochloride is available in injection form with 50 mg per mL. How many mL (to the nearest mL) of meperidine hydrochloride would the patient be able to receive in a 24- hour period?

Convert the dose into mg / lb

1 lb = .45 Kg

so the does = 6 * .45 = 2.7 mg/lb

so the daily dose of the patient is 93 * 2.7 = 251.1 mg

injections are available in 50mg per mL

to calculate the daily dose in mL 251.1 / 50 = 5 mL

Answer:

2.462

Step-by-step explanation:

I added up the decimals.

2+0.4=2.4

2.4+0.06=2.46

2.46+0.002=2.462

And I got 2.462 as my final sum.

To offer scholarships to children of employees, a company invests $13,000 at the end of every three months in an annuity that pa

Annuities

Suppose a fixed investment R is done every fixed number of periods m per year for t years at a constant rate r.

a.

The final value of the investments plus the interest is calculated as follows:

FV=R\cdot\frac{(1+i)^n-1}{i}

Where:

n = number of total periods of the investment.

n = m*t

i=\frac{r}{m}

The company invests R = $13,000 for t = 10 years at the end of every quarter (3 months), thus m = 4. The interest rate is r = 9% = 0.09.

The interest rate compounds quarterly.

Calculate:

n = 4*10 = 40

i = 0.09 / 4 = 0.0225

\begin{gathered} FV=\$13,000\cdot\frac{(1+0.00225)^{40}-1}{0.0225} \\ FV=\operatorname{\$}13,000\times\frac{(1.00225)^{40}-1}{0.0225} \\ FV=\operatorname{\$}13,000\times\frac{2.435188965-1}{0.0225} \\ FV=\operatorname{\$}13,000\cdot63.786176 \end{gathered}

Calculating:

FV = $829,220

The company will have $829,220 in scholarship funds

b. The interest can be found by subtracting the final value and the initial value. We have to calculate the latter:

\begin{gathered} A=FV(1+i)^{-n} \\ A=\$829,220(1.0225)^{-40} \\ A=\$340,516 \end{gathered}

Thus, the interest is:

welcI = $829,220 - $340,516

I = $488,704

The interest is $488,704

Determine if the following lines are parallel (never intersect), perpendicular (intersect at a 90 degree angle), intersecting (i
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:


These lines are perpendicular.

Step-by-step explanation:

Put both equations in the slope intercept form of a line.

y = -6x - 8  This is already in the slope intercept form for a line

-x + 6y = 12  Add x to both sides of the equation

6y = x + 12  Divide through the whole equation by 6

y = 1/6x +2  

Now we compare the two slopes of -6 and 1/6.  They are negative reciprocals of each other.  That means that the line are perpendicular.
