Answer:the usual dosage would be

54.55 milligrams.

Step-by-step explanation:

When Ibuprofen is given for fever to children 6 months of age up to 2 years, the usual dose is 5 milligrams (mg) per kilogram (kg) of body weight when the fever is under 102.5 degrees Fahrenheit. This means that the usual dose for a 18 month old child would be 5 milligrams (mg) per kilogram (kg) of body weight. Since the weight of the child is 24 pounds, we would covert 24 pounds to kilogram.

2.2 pounds = 1 kg

24 pounds = 24/2.2 = 10.91 kg

Therefore, the dosage would be

5 × 10.91 = 54.55 milligrams

Scientists found the wreck of the titanic 3,797 m below sea level. How many km below sea level is the wreak ?
astraxan [27]

We are given that the titanic is found 3,797 m below sea level. This is simply equivalent to 3.797 km or 3.8 km when rounded off to one decimal.

We should take note that the letter k in km means kilo and a kilo is equivalent to 1000. So this means that for 1 km there is exactly 1000 m. So to convert, simply multiply a value with unit m with this conversion factor. Conversion factor = 1 km / 1000 m

Depth of titanic = 3,797 m (1 km / 1000 m)

<span>Depth of titanic = 3.797 km = 3.8 km</span>

Answer:

x = 65

Step-by-step explanation:

using the Altitude- on- Hypotenuse theorem

(leg of big Δ )² = (part of hypotenuse below it ) × (whole hypotenuse)

x² = 25 × 169 = 4225 ( take square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{4225} = 65
