Answer:

<u>Approximately 16 tablets of medicine</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information above , we can use a <u>Rule of Three</u> to first figure out how many mg the cat would need to ingest per day.

\frac{5mg}{1kg} = \frac{x}{4.5kg}

\frac{5mg*4.5kg}{1kg} = 22.5mg

Now we see that the cat needs to take a daily dose of 22.5mg. Since the Tablets come at a strength of 10 mg per tablet then,

22.5 / 10 = 2.25

The cat would need to take 2.25 tablets per day. Since she needs to take the dose for the next 7 days then,

2.25 * 7 = 15.75

She would need to take<u> approximately 16 tablets of medicine</u> during the week .

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

Solution : -\frac{3}{4}-\frac{3}{4}i

Step-by-step explanation:

-3\left[\cos \left(\frac{-\pi }{4}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{-\pi \:}{4}\right)\right]\:\div \:2\sqrt{2}\left[\cos \left(\frac{-\pi \:\:}{2}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{-\pi \:\:\:}{2}\right)\right]

Let's apply trivial identities here. We know that cos(-π / 4) = √2 / 2, sin(-π / 4) = - √2 / 2, cos(-π / 2) = 0, sin(-π / 2) = - 1. Let's substitute those values,

\frac{-3\left(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}i\right)}{2\sqrt{2}\left(0-1\right)i}

=-3\left(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}i\right) ÷ 2\sqrt{2}\left(0-1\right)i

= 3\left(-\frac{\sqrt{2}i}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right) ÷ -2\sqrt{2}i

= \frac{3\left(1-i\right)}{\sqrt{2}}÷ 2\sqrt{2}i = -3-3i ÷ 4 = -\frac{3}{4}-\frac{3}{4}i

As you can see your solution is the last option.

Which expression is irrational?
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

\sqrt{50}

Step-by-step explanation:

An irrational number is a number that isn't a whole number (integer).

\sqrt{50} = 7.07

\sqrt{1} = 1

\sqrt{25 = 5

\sqrt{9} = 3

The first one is the only one that isn't an integer. So it is the answer.
