Answer: 1/20 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

  • <em>Modeling clay available: 1/2lb </em>
  • <em>Modeling clay used: 1/5 lb on Tuesday and 1/4 on Tuesday. </em>

So, we have to subtract the amount of clay used (1/5 +1/4) to the amount of clay available (1/2).

Mathematically speaking:

1/2 lb - ( 1/5 lb +1/4 lb) =  

1/2 lb - 9/20 lb = 1/20 lb = 1/20 pounds

1/2 = 10/20. 1/5 = 4/20. 1/4 = 5/20.

10/20 - 4/20 = 6/20.
6/20 - 5/20 = 1/20 lbs

\sin(60)  \times 8 = x

x = 6.93

And

4 \sqrt{3}  = 6.93

A label prints in the pediatric pharmacy
Elden [556K]

Answer:

107.14 ml of 70% dextrose and 392.86 ml of sterile water should be used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a label prints in the pediatric pharmacy satellite for 500 mL of dextrose 15% solution, but this concentration is not available commercially and needs to be compounded, and available in your pharmacy, you have a 1 L bag of sterile water and a 1 L bag of dextrose 70% available to compound the solution, to determine how many mLs of each are needed to make the requested solution, the following calculation must be performed:

500 x 0.15 = 75

100 x 0.70 = 70

A x 0.70 = 75

A = 75 / 0.70

A = 107.14

Therefore, 107.14 ml of 70% dextrose and 392.86 ml of sterile water should be used.
