finlep [7]
The correct answer is beach volleyball.

To lift an object, Yahaira will mostly need power in her legs. Since freestyle swimming and road cycling are heavily cardio activities, she will not gain a lot of muscle mass in her legs, which is what she needs. Flag football would also be mostly cardio, since she wouldn't be accruing muscle mass to tackle others.

The answer is beach volleyball, because in volleyball, the majority of the power has to come from your legs when you bump, set, or spike the ball. This will increase her muscle mass, which will help her in lifting heavy objects.

The physician ordered Polymox (amoxicillin) oral suspension 20 mg/kg/day in divided doses every 8 hours for a child who weights
SSSSS [86.1K]
Okay, well 66lbs is 29.937Kg. If you multiply the amount of medication which is 20mg by the amount of kilograms which is 29.937Kg, that equals 598.74mg. 598.74mg divided by 8 hours= 74.8425mg. According to my calculations, 74.8425mg every 8 hours. You might want to round my calculation to the nearest tenth as well. I hope I am correct.
