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

Solve the system of equation please help , I would greatly appreciate it
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer: Your answer is going to be D. (10, -1)


Step-by-step explanation:

Starting off the equation you want to get rid of either x or y ( I did x first)

Take x+3y=7 and multiply the entire equation by -2 -- -2(x+3y=7)

You get -2x-6y=-14 and then add the two equations together

-2x-6y=-14

2x-4y=24  -- You get -10y = 10

y = -1

You can take the -1 and plug it back into either equation.. ( I did x+3y=7)

x+3(-1)=7 -- x-3=7 -- Add the 3 to get the 10 ( x = 10 )

So you have x = 10 & y = -1

(10,-1)

How much money would produce $70 as simple interest at 3.5% per<br> annum?
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

$2000

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple Interest = $70

Rate = 3.5%

Time = 1

Principal = ?

Simple Interest = (Principal × Rate × Time)/100

Principal = (Simple Interest × 100)/(Rate × Time)

Principal = (70 × 100)/(3.5 × 1)

Principal = 7000/3.5

Principal = 14000/7

Principal = 2000
