Answer:

Multiply 2\frac{1}{2} by 3 and then add \frac{3}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

using proportion

\frac{(3/4)}{1}\frac{in}{week}=\frac{x}{3}\frac{in}{weeks} \\ \\x=3*(3/4)\\ \\x=9/4\ in

Find the height of the plant in 3 weeks

2\frac{1}{2} +\frac{9}{4}=\frac{5}{2} +\frac{9}{4}\\ \\=\frac{19}{4}\ in

therefore

The incorrect method is

Multiply 2\frac{1}{2} by 3 and then add \frac{3}{4}

because

2\frac{1}{2}*3+\frac{3}{4}=\frac{15}{2}+\frac{3}{4}\\ \\=\frac{33}{4}\ in

How long will it take to administer 1000 cc at a drop factor of 15 drop/ml and a drip rate of 50 drop/min
gayaneshka [121]
First, we are going to determine the number of drops that needs to be administered by dividing the total volume by the volume per drop. Since, 1 cc (cm³) is equal to 1 mL then, 1000 cc is equal to 1000 mL.

   n = (1000 mL)(15 drop/1 mL) = 15000 drops

Then, divide the number of drops by the number of drops per minute.

   N = (15000 drops)/ (50 drop/min) = 300 mins

Answer: 300 mins or 5 hours
