Answer:

Yes, the doctor's order within the desired range

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Dosage of Rocephin ordered = 200 mg

Mass of the infant = 15.4 lb

1 lb = 0.453592 kg

thus,

15.4 lb = 0.453  × 15.4 = 6.97 kg

Dosage is provided every 8 hours

thus,

Number of dosage per day = \frac{\textup{24 hours}}{\textup{8}} = 3

Hence,

the total dosage ordered per day = 200 × 3 = 600 mg

Dosage ordered per kg of infant per day = \frac{\textup{600}}{\textup{6.97}}

or

Dosage ordered per kg of infant per day = 86.083 mg/kg per day

Yes, the doctor's order within the desired range

I just solved it and I'm pretty sure its only one solution, I took the bottom equation multiplied it by -3 then i canceled out the equations and got 9. So that would make it C.

Consider the function f(x)= x² - 4
Arisa [49]

Answer:

(X+2) (X-2) . This is the final answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving f(x) = x^2 - 4

A^2 - B^2 is a special case where the original equation before it was foiled is

(A + B) (A - B) because the middle terms will cancel out when foiled.

This means that the equation can be written as

(X + 2)(X - 2) = 0

Each of these you will then set equal to 0 and then solve

X + 2 = 0, X - 2 = 0

X = -2, 2

I hope this helps you! let me now if its right ok <3 :)
