A doctor administers a drug to a 36-kg patient, using a dosage formula of 51 mg/kg/day. Assume the drug is available in a 300 mg

per 5ml suspension or in 500 mg tablets. How many tablets should a 36-kg patient take every four hours?

500 is the square root of 36-kg because of 300 tablets

A steep mountain is inclined 75 degree to the horizontal and rises 3900 ft above the surrounding plain. A cable car is to be ins

maria [59]

Answer: $4004.76\ ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

inclination is $\theta=75^{\circ}$

Mountain is $h=3900\ ft$ high

Cable is tied $x=910\ ft$ from the base of the mountain

From the figure, length of the shortest path is $l$

It is given by using Pythagoras theorem

$\Rightarrow l^2=3900^2+910^2\\\Rightarrow l=\sqrt{(3900)^2+(910)^2}\\\Rightarrow l=4004.76\ ft$

According to the manufacturer of the candy Skittles, 20% of the candy produced are red. If we take a random sample of 100 bags o

igomit [66]

Answer:

Probability that the proportion in our sample of red candies will be less than 20% is 0.5 .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that 20% of the candy produced are red. A random sample of 100 bags of Skittles is taken.

The distribution we can use here is;

$\frac{\hat p - p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1- \hat p)}{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, p = 0.20 and n = 100

Let $\hat p$ = proportion of red candies in our sample

So, P( $\hat p$ < 0.20) = P( $\frac{\hat p - p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1- \hat p)}{n} } }$ < $\frac{0.20 - 0.20}{\sqrt{\frac{0.2 (1- 0.2)}{100} } }$ ) = P(Z < 0) = 0.5

Therefore, probability that the proportion in our sample of red candies will be less than 20% is 0.5 .

A 10 ft. tent pole has a support rope that extends from the top of the pole to the ground. The rope and the ground form a 30 deg

GrogVix [38]

So you have a pole that is 10 feet tall that has a rope that goes from the top to the ground, the rope being 30 degrees to the ground... You can draw a right triangle using these dimensions. Now that you have a triangle, you look at where your 30degree angle is related to the side whose length you know and the side whose length you wish to find. The side you know is opposite from the 30 degrees while the side you want to find is the hypotenuse, for it goes down at an angle. You will use the opposite and hypotenuse sides, so, according to SOH CAH TOA, you will be using sin.
$\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}=sin\theta,\theta=30,opposite=10,hypotenuse=?$
plug in those values and solve for your hypotenuse.
The easiest way to do this is if you knew the identities for special right triangles like the 30 60 90 triangles or the 45 45 90 triangles, but I showed you how to solve for your sides even if they're not special
