Answer:

The length of one leg of the triangle is 22 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question in the attached figure

Let

x ----> the length of one leg of the triangle

we know that

In the right isosceles triangle of the figure

The cosine of angle of 45 degrees is equal to the adjacent side to angle of 45 degrees divided by the hypotenuse

$cos(45\°)=\frac{x}{22\sqrt{2}}$ ---> equation A

$cos(45\°)=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$ ----> equation B

equate equation A and equation B and solve for x

$\frac{x}{22\sqrt{2}}=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$

$x=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}(22\sqrt{2})=22\ units$

therefore

The length of one leg of the triangle is 22 units

QUESTION 4

The given system of linear equations are,

$y = 5x - 7...(1)$

and

$- 3x - 2y = - 12...(2)$

We put equation (1) into equation (2) to obtain,

$- 3x - 2(5x - 7) = - 12$

We expand to get,

$- 3x - 10x + 14 = - 12$

Group like terms to get,

$- 3x - 10x = - 12 - 14$

Simplify to get,

$- 13x = - 26$

Divide both sides by -13 to get,

$x = 2$

Put the value of x into equation (1) to get,

$y = 5(2) - 7$

$y = 10 - 7 = 3$

The solution is

$x = 2 \: \: and \: \: = 3$

QUESTION 5

The given system of linear equations are

$-4x+y=6....(1)$
and

$-5x-y=21...(2)$

We make y the subject in equation (1) to get,

$y = 4x + 6....(3)$

Put equation (3) into equation (2) to get,

$- 5x - (4x + 6) = 21$

We expand to get,

$- 5x - 4x - 6 =21$

We group like terms to get,

$- 5x - 4x = 21 + 6$

This implies that,

$- 9x = 27$

We divide both sides by -9 to get,

$x = - 3$

Put the value of x in to equation 3 to get,

$y = 4( - 3) + 6$

$y = - 12 + 6 = - 6$

Therefore the solution is

$x = - 3 \: and \: y = - 6$

QUESTION 6

The given equations are,

$-7x-2y=-13...(1)$

and

$x-2y=-13...(2)$

Make x the subject in equation (2) to get,

$x = 2y - 13...(3)$

Put equation (3) into equation (1) to get,
$- 7(2y - 13) - 2y = - 13$

We expand to get,

$- 14y + 91 - 2y = - 13$

We group like terms to obtain,

$- 14y - 2y = - 13 - 91$

.Simplify to get,

$- 16y = - 104$

Divide through by -16 to get,

$y = \frac{13}{2}$

Put the value of y into equation (3) to get,

$x = 2( \frac{13}{2} ) - 13$

$x = 13 - 13 = 0$

Therefore

$x = 0 \: and \: y = \frac{13}{2}$

A) 20 milligrams of the drug lincomycin is to be given for each kilogram of a person's weight the drug is be mixed with 250 cc o

krok68 [10]

Answer:

you need to convert pounds to kilograms. 196 pounds is 88.904 kilograms. The directions tell you that 20 milligrams of the drug is to be administered for each kilogram of a person's weight. Now you need to multiply 88.904 by 20. That should give you 1778.08 milligrams of lincomycin. You would then mix 250 cc's of saline solution to the 1778.08 milligrams of lincomycin; but I think its just asking you how much lincomycin to administer.

at what rate per minute should the 250 cc solution be adminstered
