Answer:

  182 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

You can write the proportion for the required patient weight (w) as ...

  weight/medicine = w/(174.72 mg) = (150 lb)/(144 mg)

  w = (150 lb)(174.72/144) . . . . . multiply by 174.72 mg

  w ≈ 182 lb

The patient's weight is 182 pounds.

The cost of 12 oranges and 7 coples is 55.36. Eight oranges and apples cost $3.68. Find the cost
victus00 [196]

Hello there i hope you are having a good day :) Your question : The cost of 12 oranges and 7 couples is 55.36. Eight oranges and apples cost $3.68. Find the cost  of each : Firstly you would do oranges = O Apples = A. Then 12 oranges + 7 apples = 5.36 12o + 7A = 5.36 then you would take away from both sides so -12o Take away -12o = 7o = 5.36 - 12A now you would divide this by 7 so 7 cancels each out so you are left with 5.36/ 7 = 0.76 Then it would equal 0.76 - 12o/7 This would equal the amount of apples to be $0.76 each now for the oranges you would do the same that you work out for the apples.

Hopefully that help ya :)
