Answer:

The fractions 3/5 and 6/15 are not equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 3 can go into 6 2 times, and 5 can go into 15 3 times, they are not equivalent. In order to have an equivalent fraction, you have to multiply or divide the numerator and denominator by the same number in order to check if they are equivalent.

3/5 ≠ 6/15

A child weighing 22.5 kg has an IV order for Vancomycin Calculate the q8h per dose dosage if the label states that

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

q8h dosage = 112.5mg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Child Weight = 22.5 kg

Daily Intravenous Dosage = 40mg/kg

Type of Dose = q8h

Required

Calculate the q8h per dose

We start by calculating the total daily dosage in mg

This is calculated by multiplying the child weight by the intravenous dosage

Daily Dosage = 22.5kg * 40mg/kg

Daily Dosage = 900mg

This implies that the body weight requires 900 mg daily

Next is to calculate the q8h dosage

q8h means every 8 hours.

q8h dosage = 900mg/8

q8h dosage = 112.5mg

Answer:

q = 177/13

Step-by-step explanation:

3q - 16q = 7 + 2(-89 – 3)

-13q = 7 + 2(-92)

-13q = 7 - 184

-13q = -177

q = (-177)/(-13)

q = 177/13

Choose the equation that represents the graph below: (1 point) Graph of a line passing through points 0 comma 6 and 9 comma 0 y

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Equation of a line $y=\frac{-2}{3}x+6$ passing through (0,6) and (9,0).

Explanation:

Given the two points (0, 6) and (9 ,0).

To find the equation for the given two points $(x_{1},y_{1})$ and $(x_{2},y_{2})$ is,

$y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$ ; where m is the slope and is given by:

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

First find the slope m:

$m=\frac{0-6}{9-0} =\frac{-6}{9} =\frac{-2}{3}$

Substitute this value in equation of line:

$y-6=\frac{-2}{3} (x-0)$ or

$y-6=\frac{-2}{3} x$

⇒ $y=\frac{-2}{3}x+6$

Therefore, the equation for the given point is: $y=\frac{-2}{3}x+6$
