Answer: BAC = 0.056%
Explanation:-
Data given;
Weight of the man = 150 lbs (Wt)
Number of drinks = 2 beers
We know that
A beer contains 5% (0.05) of alcohol (D)
1 bear = 12oz
So 2 beer = 2 × 12 = 24oz (A)
Derived from widmark formula;
BAC for Male = (A × D × 5.14) / ( Wt × 0.73 )
BAC for Female = (A × D × 5.14) / ( Wt × 0.66 )
WHERE
A = Alcohol consumed in ounces (oz.)
D = percentage of alcohol written as a decimal
Wt = weight of person in pounds (lbs.)
Using BAC for male
BAC for Male = (A × D × 5.14) / ( Wt × 0.73 )
We simply input our values
BAC = ( 24 × 0.05 × 5.14) / ( 150 × 0.73)
BAC = 6.168 / 109.5
BAC = 0.056%
