Answer:

a = 120 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

n = number of sides

edge length

40/n

divide the polygon into n congruent triangles

a = (1/2)(edge * apothem) * number of triangles

a = (1/2)(40/n)(6) * n

n cancels out

a = (1/2)(40)(6)

a = 120 cm²

Solve the equation -6(2a + 7) = -22- 8a

Andru [333]

Answer: a = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, open up the brackets, and solve it

-12a -42 = -22 -8a. (-6 x 2a, and -6 x 7)

bring the -8a to the left side, so that all the a’s are together

-12a -42 + 8a = -22 (add -42 on both sides like we did with -8a)

-12a + 8a = -22 + 42

solve

-4a = 20

divide -4 on both sides

a = -5

Ampicillin 250 mg IM every 12 hours is ordered. After reconstitution, there's 125 mg/mL. How many mL would you give?

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

Correct choice is C. 2 mL.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Ampicillin 250 mg IM every 12 hours is ordered. After reconstitution, there's 125 mg/mL. Now we need to find about how many mL would you give.

Let number of ml needed = x.

Since ratio of mg per mL will be fixed so we get equation:

$\frac{mL}{mg}=\frac{x}{250}=\frac{1}{125}$

$\frac{x}{250}=\frac{1}{125}$

$x=\frac{1}{125} \times 250$

$x=\frac{250}{125}$

$x=2$

Hence correct choice is C. 2 mL.
