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

MAXImum [283]
<h3>Answer: Choice C</h3>

P = 11/40 + 1/4 - 1/20

=========================================================

Explanation:

The formula we use is

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)

In this case,

  • P(A) = 22/80 = 11/40 = probability of picking someone from consumer education
  • P(B) = 20/80 = 1/4 = probability of picking someone taking French
  • P(A and B) = 4/80 = 1/20 = probability of picking someone taking both classes

So,

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)

P(A or B) = 11/40 + 1/4 - 1/20

which is why choice C is the answer

----------------

Note: P(A and B) = 1/20 which is nonzero, so events A and B are not mutually exclusive.
