Hey there!
If the price of a CD on sale is 0.65c, then 0.35 was taken off of the original price. You can find this if you subtract 0.65 from 1, or 65% from 100%.
Your answer would not be your second option or your fourth option, since the price you're paying is 0.65 of the original price and you are getting 0.35 of the price off. Also, your third option wouldn't be correct either, since 0.35 isn't being added on top of the total price.
Your answer is your first option.
Hope this helped you out! :-)
To figure this out you first need to determine how many kg there are in 220 lbs. 1 lb equals 0.454 kg, so 220 lbs= 99.88 kg.
It states that a patient receives 7mcg per kg per minute, so the patient will receive 7 x 99.88=699.16 mcg per minute.
You need to convert this to a number of mcg per hour, so multiply the amount by 60 to get 41949.6 mcg per hour.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for one of the variables in the first equation (in this case, I will solve for X):
X = Y + 3
Then use that value of X in the second equation to solve for Y:
X + 3Y = 9
(Y + 3) + 3Y = 9
4Y + 3 = 9
4Y = 6
Y = 1.5
Use the value of Y we just found in the X equation we created:
X = Y + 3
X = 1.5 + 3
X = 4.5
Therefore X = 4.5 or 9/2 and Y = 1.5 or 3/2.
