Answer:

each dose = 6.7 mL ( to 1 decimal place)

Step-by-step explanation:

Total volume of vial = 20mL

each dose of vial = 1/3 of the total volume

let us express this fraction as a real number:

1/3 of 20 = 1/3 × 20

Since we are to express the answer as a decimal, let us convert the fraction to decimal:

1/3 = 0.3333

∴ 1/3 × 20 = 0.3333 × 20 = 6.667 mL

since we are dealing with drugs, it'll be appropraite to express the answer to 1 d.p

∴ each dose = 6.7 mL

From his home, Clayton would have to walk 4 miles north to get to his friend Miki's house and 1 mile east to get to his friend D
iren2701 [21]
The houses form a right triangle. Using a²+b²=c² you will find that the distance from Clayton’s house to Danny’s would be 4.1 miles. Adding it all up, the distance would be 9.1 miles of walking.

Danika signs up to work for 3 1/2 hours at the science fair. If each work shift is 3/4 hour, how many shifts will Danika work?
forsale [732]

namely, how many times does 3/4 go into 3½?  Let's firstly convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction.

\bf \stackrel{mixed}{3\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{7}{2}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \cfrac{7}{2}\div \cfrac{3}{4}\implies \cfrac{7}{~~\begin{matrix} 2 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}~~}\cdot \cfrac{\stackrel{2}{~~\begin{matrix} 4 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}~~}}{3}\implies \cfrac{14}{3}\implies 4\frac{2}{3}

3. Which statements about the line that passes through (-2, 0) and (2, -4) are true?
diamong [38]

Answer:

B, C, and D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's go through each answer choice.

A: To find the slope of a line from two points, we use this formula: (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1). Plugging in the values (-2,0) and (2, -4), we get:

  • (-4-0)/(2+2)
  • -4/4
  • -1

Because option A says the slope is 1, but we got -1, option A is false.

B: To find the y-intercept, we use this formula: b = y_1 - m * x_1

  • b = 0 -(-1) * (-2)
  • b = 1 * (-2)
  • b = -2  

Since we know the value of b is the y-intercept, we could write the y-intercept as (0,-2). Therefore, option B is true.

C: The equation of a line (in slope-intercept form) is y = mx + b, where y - y-coordinate, m = slope, x = x-coordinate, and b = y-intercept. Since we already solved for the y-intercept and slope, let's plug in those values:

  • y = mx +b
  • y = -x -2

As you can see, the equation we got here matches the one in option C, meaning it's true.

D: We know that a point is written like this: (x, y). If the x-coordinate is not zero but the y-coordinate is, then it's the x-intercept. Since the question says that (-2,0) is one of the points the line passes through, and option D says that the x-intercept is (-2,0), it's true.
