One of the formulas for calculating the correct dosage for a child is as follows: C= a/((a+12)) ∙ 180 C = child’s dosage in mill

igrams a = age of the child A = adult dosage in milligrams What is the prescribed dosage of a certain medicine for a child 6 years old, if the adult dosage of the medicine is 180 milligrams?

So you already have the formula for calculating the dosage for child with: C = a/(a+12)x 180 ml Not sure why you have double brackets

variables are: a = child's age, so everywhere you have an "a" replace it with the age of child.

Example: 5 year old child

C = 5/(5+12)*180= 5/(17)*180 = 5/3060 = .0016 ml or milligrams

I need help! This is Geometry lesson 8-3 ! Please help me asap!!!!

If you learned about the 45-45-90 triangle (which is isosceles), then the faster way is to know that the hypotenuse (side opposite of right angle) is √2 times either one of the sides.
3√2 = (√2)x
x = 3

But if you didn't learn the 45-45-90 triangle yet, that's ok.
Recall the trigonometric ratios for right triangles: sine (sin), cosine (cos), tangent (tan).

If your angle is x, then
sin(x) = opposite side / hypotenuse
cos(x) = adjacent side / hypotenuse
tan(x) = opposite side / adjacent side

Remember the hypotenuse is the side opposite and across from the right angle (3√2 in this case).
An acronym to remember this is SohCahToa.

In this problem, the angle given is 45°, and you need to find the length of the adjacent side x. The hypotenuse is also given as 3√2.

Because we have the adjacent side and the hypotenuse, we use cosine to relate those two sides
cos(45°) = x / (3√2)
x = (3√2)cos45°
If you plug this into your calculator (in degree mode), then
x = 3
