If an intravenous fluid is adjusted to deliver 15 mg of medication to a patient per hour, how many milligrams of medication are

delivered per half minute?
Mathematics

8 0

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)

Nathaniel builds birds and birdhouses using Lego blocks. Let B represent the number of birds and H represent the number of birdh
N76 [4]

Answer:

At-most 3 birdhouses.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let B represent the number of birds and H represent the number of birdhouses that Nathaniel can build with his Lego blocks.

We have been given that Nathaniel builds birds and birdhouses using Lego blocks. The inequality 43B+215H\leq3000 represents the number of birds and birdhouses Nathaniel could build.

To find the number of birdhouses that Nathaniel can build after making 50 birds, we will substitute B=50 in our given inequality and then solve for H.

43*50+215H\leq3000

2150+215H\leq3000

Let us subtract 2150 from both sides of our inequality.

2150-2150+215H\leq3000-2150

215H\leq850

Let us divide both both sides of our inequality by 215.

\frac{215H}{215}\leq\frac{850}{215}

H\leq3.953488

As Nathaniel can make build less than or equal to 3.953488 and the biggest integer less than or equal to 3.953 is 3, therefore, Nathaniel can build at-most 3 birdhouses with remaining Lego blocks.

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

$780

Step-by-step explanation:

P = Original Price

P (100% - 10%) = $702

P (90%) = $702

(P (.9)) / .9 = $702 / .9

P = $780

Check answer:

$780 (90%) = $702
