Answer:

A basic formula, solving for x, guides us in the setting up of an equation: D/H x Q = x, or Desired dose (amount) = ordered Dose amount/amount on Hand x Quantity

Step-by-step explanation:

Medications are available in multiple concentrations, therefore orders written in "mL" rather than "mg" are not acceptable and require further clarification.

...

Example 2.

Step 1. Calculate the dose in mg: 18 kg × 100 mg/kg/day = 1800 mg/day

Step 2. Divide the dose by the frequency: 1800 mg/day ÷ 1 (daily) = 1800 mg/dose

The base of a triangular prism is an isosceles right triangle with a hypotenuse of 72−−√ centimeters. The height of the prism is
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area = lateral area + 2(area of base)

Lateral area = perimeter of base * height.

Because it is a isosceles right triangle, both sides are equal.

x^{2} +x^{2} = 72

2x^{2} = 72. Divide both sides by 2

x^{2} = 36.  Square both sides.

x = 6.

So the perimeter of the base = 6 + 6 +\sqrt{72} = 20.485281374239

Lateral area = 20.485281374239 * 7 = 143.397 cm^{2}

Area of base is (1/2)base * height.

(1/2)(6)(6) = 18

Using the surface area formula

surface area = 143.397 + 2(18) = 179.4 cm^{3}

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (4, -1) and<br> (-8, –7)?
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

y=1/2x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-7-(-1))/(-8-4)

m=(-7+1)/-12

m=-6/-12

m=1/2

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-1)=1/2(x-4)

y+1=1/2x-4/2

y=1/2x-2-1

y=1/2x-3

Micah walks on a treadmill at 4 miles per hour. He has walked 2 miles
lana66690 [7]
<span>Let time taken by Luke to cover the distance = x hours Speed of Luke = 6 miles per hour Therefore, Distance covered by Luke = 6x ------(1) Speed of Micah = 4 miles per hour Since Micah walked 2 miles before Luke started running, Luke started 1/2 an hour after Micah started. Therefore time taken by Micah to cover the distance = x+1/2 Distance covered by Micah = 4(x + 1/2) -------(2) Equating (1) and (2) 6x = 4(x+1/2) 6x = 4x +2 2x = 2 x= 1 Therefore Luke would take 1 hour to cover the distance covered by Micah.</span>
