A sample consensus formula for fluid replacement recommends that a balanced salt solution be administered in the first 24 hours
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

A 176-lb (80-kg) man with a 30% burn should receive a minimum of 2,400 ml of fluid replacement in the first 8 hours

The answer is option b. 2,400 ml

Explanation:

<em>Step 1: Determine total minimum ml per percentage of burn</em>

Minimum ml per kg=2 ml

The man is 80 kg

Total minimum ml to be administered per percentage of burn=minimum ml per kg×weight of the man

replacing;

Total minimum ml to be administered= 2×80=160 ml per percentage

<em>Step 2: Determine total minimum ml  in the first 24 hours</em>

This can be expressed as;

Total minimum ml to be administered=Total minimum ml to be administered per percentage of burn×percentage of burn

where;

Total minimum ml to be administered per percentage of burn=160 ml per percentage of burn

percentage of burn=30%

replacing;

Total minimum ml to be administered in the first 24 hours=160×30=4,800 ml

<em>Step 2: Determine total minimum ml  in the first 8 hours</em>

total minimum ml to be administered in the first 8 hours=50%×4,800

(50/100)×4,800=2,400 ml

A 176-lb (80-kg) man with a 30% burn should receive a minimum of 2,400 ml of fluid replacement in the first 8 hours

A market system tends to restrict business risk to owners and investors. This results in which of the following benefits?
In-s [12.5K]

Answer: d)Firms have to pay more to attract inputs, as these inputs have to share the risk.

Explanation: When the market system tries to put restriction on the business risk to owner and other investors , the firms have to give more payment to attract them to market business.

The chances of risk have have to be shared by both the parties so the owners or investors are going to indulge in the business when they gain some benefit e.g.-more payment.

Other options are incorrect because entrepreneurship will not be encouraged through this process. Incomes will not be distributed equally and neither the prudent risk management will be aimed.Thus, the correct option is option(d).

ra1l [238]

Answer: This rate setting scheme creates an adverse selection​ problem: Homeowners with houses on unstable soil are more likely to purchase insurance than homeowners with houses that rest on bedrock

Explanation:

California has its own earthquake insurance program for homeowners and the rates vary by the ZIP code, which depends on the proximity of nearest fault line.

However, critics claim that the people who set the rates ignored soil type. Some houses rest on bedrock while others sit on unstable soil. If the soil type is used, rate setting scheme creates an adverse selection problem.

An adverse selection problem is tendency of those in high-risk areas to purchase the insurance claim because there are higher chances they may get affected. Therefore, the homeowners with houses on unstable soil will more like buy insurance than the homeowners with houses that rest on bedrock.
