Hi!
(l = Lenny
m = Max)
Lenny is 3 times as old as Max.
3m = l
When you subtract Max's age from Lenny's age, you get 24.
L - m = 24
Put in the value of l.
3m - m = 24
There is our equation.
Now solve
2m = 24
2m/2 = 24/2
m = 12
3 * 12 = l
36 = l
The equation is 3m - m = 24
Max is 12 and Lenny is 36.
Hope this helps! :)

Answer:
The patient would receive 1.05mg of the drug weekly.
Step-by-step explanation:
First step: How many mcg of the drug would the patient receive daily?
The problem states that he takes three doses of 50-mcg a day. So
1 dose - 50mcg
3 doses - x mcg
x = 50*3
x = 150 mcg.
He takes 150mcg of the drug a day.
Second step: How many mcg of the drug would the patient receive weekly?
A week has 7 days. He takes 150mcg of the drug a day. So:
1 day - 150mcg
7 days - x mcg
x = 150*7
x = 1050mcg
He takes 1050mcg of the drug a week.
Final step: Conversion of 1050 mcg to mg
Each mg has 1000 mcg. How many mg are there in 1050 mcg? So
1mg - 1000 mcg
xmg - 1050mcg
1000x = 1050

x = 1.05mg
The patient would receive 1.05mg of the drug weekly.
Answer:
1 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Absolute values are how far away it is from 0, so it is always positive. It is always the positive number of itself, so absolute values of negative numbers are the opposite, and the absolute value of positive numbers and just the same numbers.
(Exponential decay) hope it helps:)
