Answer:

337.5 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

A licensed nurse practitioner is instructed to give a patient 2700 milligrams of an antibiotic over a period of 48 hours. If the antibiotic is to be given every 6 hours

Hence: the number of doses or times the antibiotic would be administered =

48 hours/6 hours = 8 doses(times)

The amount of antibiotic that should be given in each dose is:

48 hours = 2700 mg

6 hours = x mg

Cross Multiply

48x = 2700 mg × 6 hours

x = 2700mg × 6/48

x = 2700/8

x = 337.5 mg

Given f(x) = e^x and g(x) = x – 2, what is the range of (g*f)(x)
frutty [35]

For this case we have the following functions:

f (x) = e ^ x\\g (x) = x-2

By definition we have to:

(f * g) (x) = f (x) * g (x)

Substituting:

(f * g) (x) = e ^ x (x-2)

The range of the function is given by all values of "and" valid. That is, all the real numbers.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

1100 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 types of cookies, the first represents 45% of the total, the second 25% and the last type there are 330. We can pose the following equation:

0.45 * x + 0.25 * x + 330 = x

solving for x:

x - 0.45 * x - 0.25 * x = 330

0.30 * x = 330

x = 330 / 0.3

x = 1100

which means that there are a total of 1100 cookies
