Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The idea here is to be able to write and then solve the equation needed for this. In words, this is what you are looking to solve: "The active ingredinet is 45% of the mass of the pill". Putting those words into an equation:

active ingredient = .45 (mass of pill). Since our active ingredient is 35 mg:

325 = .45m and divide by .45:

m = 722.2 mg

Find the coordinates of the point 7/10 of the way from A to B. a=(-3,-6) b=(12,4)

Artemon [7]

Answer:

The coordinates of $M$ are $x = \frac{15}{2}$ and $y = 1$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be $A = (-3,-6)$ and $B = (12, 4)$ endpoints of segment AB and $M$ a point located 7/10 the way from A to B. Vectorially, we get this formula:

$\overrightarrow {AM} = \frac{7}{10}\cdot \overrightarrow {AB}$

$\vec M - \vec A = \frac{7}{10}\cdot (\vec B - \vec A)$

By Linear Algebra we get the location of $M$ :

$\vec M = \vec A + \frac{7}{10}\cdot (\vec B - \vec A)$

$\vec M = \vec A +\frac{7}{10}\cdot \vec B - \frac{7}{10}\cdot \vec A$

$\vec M = \frac{3}{10}\cdot \vec A + \frac{7}{10}\cdot \vec B$

If we know that $\vec A = (-3,-6)$ and $\vec B = (12, 4)$ , then:

$\vec M = \frac{3}{10}\cdot (-3,-6)+\frac{7}{10}\cdot (12,4)$

$\vec M = \left(-\frac{9}{10},-\frac{9}{5} \right)+\left(\frac{42}{5} ,\frac{14}{5} \right)$

$\vec M =\left(-\frac{9}{10}+\frac{42}{5} ,-\frac{9}{5}+\frac{14}{5} \right)$

$\vec M = \left(\frac{15}{2} ,1\right)$

The coordinates of $M$ are $x = \frac{15}{2}$ and $y = 1$ .

Instructions: Find the missing side of the triangle.<br> 24 and 7

ANTONII [103]

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this. The Pythagorean theorem is a^2 + b^2 = c^2. We already have a and b, we need to find c. 24^2 + 7^2 is 625. Then, we need to find the square root of 625 to find c. The answer is 25. x = 25.
