Answer:

985.15mg

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for how many milligrams of the drug should he receive every 12 hours

First step is to calculate the weight in kg

255 lbs = 255/2.2 = 115.9 kg

Second step is multiply mg/kg in order to get total medicine per day

Dose per day=115.9kg × 17 mg

Dose per day= 1,970.3

Third step is to calculate how many milligrams of the drug should he receive by dividing the day dose by 2

Dose milligrams=1,970.3/2

Dose milligrams=985.15mg

Therefore how many milligrams of the drug should he receive every 12 hours will be 985.15mg

7(2e-1)-3=6+6e pls help and do step by step
densk [106]

Answer:

e = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

7(2e - 1) - 3 = 6 + 6e

14e - 7 - 3 = 6 + 6e

14e - 10 = 6 + 6e

14e - 6e - 10 = 6

8e - 10 = 6

8e = 6 + 10

8e = 16

8e/8 = 16/8

e = 2

Recheck:

7(2e - 1) - 3 = 6 + 6e

7(2(2) - 1) - 3 = 6 + 6(2)

7(4 - 1) - 3 = 6 + 12

7(3) - 3 = 18

21 - 3 = 18

18 = 18 ✅

What is the length of the altitude of the equilateral triangle below
AVprozaik [17]

Answer

Find out the altitude of the equilateral triangle .

To proof

By using the trignometric identity.

tan\theta = \frac{Perpendicular}{base}

As shown in the diagram

and putting the values of the angles , base and perpendicular

tan 60^{\circ} = \frac{a}{4\sqrt{3}}

tan 60^{\circ} = \sqrt{3}

solving

\sqrt{3} = \frac{a}{4\sqrt{3}}

a = \sqrt{3}\times 4 \sqrt{3}

As

\sqrt{3}\times \sqrt{3} = 3

put in the above

a = 4 × 3

a = 12 units

The  length of the altitude of the equilateral triangle is 12 units .

Option (F) is correct .

Hence proved
