Answer: 0.125 mg per half minute

Step-by-step explanation:

15mg per hour can be written as 15mg/h

To find out how many mg of medication are delivered per half minute you can convert from hour to minutes

There are 60 minutes in 1 hour, so you can use the conversion factor (1h/60 min) and multiply the expression by it

15 mg/h (1h/60min) = 0.25 mg/min

But the question is per half minute so you have to multiply and divide the previous expression by 0.5 (To obtain 0.5 min in the denominator, which is half minute)

Then,

(0.25 mg/min ) (0.5/0.5) = 0.125 mg/ 0.5 min (0.125 mg per half minute)

An angle measures 94" more than the measure of its supplementary angle. What is the
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

The measure of the angles are 137 and 43

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we need to understand what is meant by saying two angles are supplementary.Two angles are termed supplementary if the addition of the value of both angles equal 180.

Now let the two angles we are seeking in this question be x and y respectively

We write our first equation using the supplementary information;

x + y = 180 •••••••••••(i)

Secondly we are made to know that the difference between these angles is 94

Mathematically;

x - y = 94

or simply x = 94 + y; insert this into equation 1 above

94 + y + y = 180

2y = 180 - 94

2y = 86

y = 86/2

y = 43

x = 94 + y = 94 + 43 = 137

1) a^2+2ab+b^2=25, find a+b
Pavel [41]

Answer:

1) -5 and +5; 2) -9 and +9

Step-by-step explanation:

1) a² + 2ab + b² = 25

(a + b)² = 25      Wrote the left-hand side as a square

  a + b =  ±5    Took the square root of each side

All values of a + b are -5 and +5.

2) a² − 8ab + 16b² = 81

(a - 4b)² = 81      Wrote the left-hand side as a square

  a - 4b = ±9     Took the square root of each side

All values of a - 4b are -9 and +9.
