Answer:

the amount of each deposit is $45,555

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the each deposit is shown below:

Given that

Future value be $20,000

Time period = 15 × 2 = 30

And, the rate = 5% ÷ 2 = 2.5%

Now the formula is as follows

= (Future value × rate of interest) ÷ (1 + rate of interest)^time period - 1

= ($20,000 × 2.5) ÷ (1 + 0.025)^30 - 1

= $50,000 ÷ 1.0975675791

= $45,555

Hence, the amount of each deposit is $45,555

A physician orders 140mg of a medication to give orally. You have 125mg/5mL on hand. What is the correct dose of medication to g
adelina 88 [10]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: The correct dose of medication to give is 5.6 mL

<h2>Why?</h2>

To solve this problem we need to establish a relationship between the prescripted medication and the available solution.

Let's write the needed equations to establish the relantionship:

\frac{125mg}{5mL}=1\\\\125mg=5mL

The available solution means 125 mg each 5 mL of solution, so:

\frac{125mg}{5mL}=\frac{140mg}{x}\\\\x*\frac{125mg}{5mL}=140mg\\\\x=140mg*\frac{5ml}{125mg}=\frac{700mg*mL}{125mg}=5.6mL

Hence, the correct dose of medication to give is 5.6 mL of the 125 mg/5mL solution.

Have a nice day!

Solve the triangle using similarity
ozzi
15. The left triangle is similar to the whole triangle. The x of the small triangle is proportional to the hypotenuse of the large triangle (9+16 =25). the x of the large triangle is proportional to the 9 unit leg of the small triangle.  this creates the proportion \frac{x}{9} = \frac{25}{x}. Cross multiply to get x^{2} =225 take the square roots of both sides to get x=225

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

280 + 5(–5) + (–42) + 2(75) + (–200)

280 - 25 - 42 + 150 - 200

280 - 67 + 150 - 200

280 - 67 - 50

213 - 50

= $163
