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

You have a bag full of apples. There are 12 Jonathan (red), 6 Granny Smith (green), and 3 Golden Delicious (yellow) apples in th
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

The total number of apples is 17

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Number of green apples = 4

P ( that all three apples are green)

= (limit 4 and 3) / (limit 17 and 3)

= 4! / 3!(4−3)!

= 17! / 3!(17−3)!

= 1 / 170

= 0.005

(b)

Number of red apples = 8

P(that all three apple are green)

=(limit 8 and 3) / (limit 17 and 3)

= 8! / 3!(8−3)!

= 17! / 3!(17−3)!

= 7 / 85

= 0.082

Now,

P(that no three apple is red)= 1−0.082 = 0.918

c)

P(of selecting 4 apple that contain at least 2 red apples)

= (limit 8 and 2) /( limit 17 and 2) X (2/15) + (limit 8 and 3) /(limit 17 / 3) X (1/14)

= (7/34) × (2/15) + (7/85) × (1/14)

= 0.027 + 0.058

= 0.085

d)

P(that the second apple selected is yellow given that the first apple is red)

= (limit 5 and 1) / ( limit 16 and 1)

= 5! / 1!(5−1)!

= 16! / 1!(16−1)!

= 5 /16

= 0.3125

Type the correct answer in the box. Use a comma to separate the x- and y-coordinates of each point. The coordinates of the point
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

On a unit circle, the point that corresponds to an angle of 0^{\circ} is at position (1, \, 0).

The point that corresponds to an angle of 90^{\circ} is at position (0, \, 1).

Step-by-step explanation:

On a cartesian plane, a unit circle is

  • a circle of radius 1,
  • centered at the origin (0, \, 0).

The circle crosses the x- and y-axis at four points:

  • (1, \, 0),
  • (0, \, 1),
  • (-1,\, 0), and
  • (0,\, -1).

Join a point on the circle with the origin using a segment. The "angle" here likely refers to the counter-clockwise angle between the positive x-axis and that segment.

When the angle is equal to 0^\circ, the segment overlaps with the positive x-axis. The point is on both the circle and the positive x-axis. Its coordinates would be (1, \, 0).

To locate the point with a 90^{\circ} angle, rotate the 0^\circ segment counter-clockwise by 90^{\circ}. The segment would land on the positive y-axis. In other words, the 90^{\circ}-point would be at the intersection of the positive y-axis and the circle. Its coordinates would be (0, \, 1).
