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.

P is the point on the line 2x+y-10=0 such that the length of OP, the line segment from the origin O to P, is a minimum. Find the

nirvana33 [79]

The minimum distance is the perpendicular distance. So establish the distance from the origin to the line using the distance formula.
The distance here is: d2=(x−0)^2+(y−0)^2
 =x^2+y^2

To minimize this function d^2 subject to the constraint, 2x+y−10=0
If we substitute, the y-values the distance function can take will be related to the x-values by the line:y=10−2x
You can substitute this in for y in the distance function and take the derivative:
d=sqrt [x2+(10−2x)^2]

d′=1/2 (5x2−40x+100)^(−1/2) (10x−40)
Setting the derivative to zero to find optimal x,
d′=0→10x−40=0→x=4

This will be the x-value on the line such that the distance between the origin and line will be EITHER a maximum or minimum (technically, it should be checked afterward).
For x = 4, the corresponding y-value is found from the equation of the line (since we need the corresponding y-value on the line for this x-value).

Then y = 10 - 2(4) = 2.
So the point, P, is (4,2).

Limit as x approaches 0 of csc3x/cotx

jolli1 [7]

Hello Meggieh821, to find the lim as x approaches 0 we can check this by inserting a number that is close to 0 that is coming from the left and from the right.

For instance, we can find the lim by using the number -.00001 for x and solve
csc(3x) / cot(x)
csc(3*-.00001) / cot(-.00001) = .333333... = 1 /3

We also need to check coming from the right. We will use the number .00001 for x
csc(3x) / cot(x)
csc(3*.00001) / cot(.00001) = .333333... = 1 /3

So since we are getting 1/3 from the left and right we can say as x approaches 0 the limit is 1/3

 $\lim_{x\to 0} \frac{csc(3x)}{cot(x)} = \frac{1}{3}$
