As children grow, dosages for medications gradually approach those for adults. Clark’s rule is often used to determine the corre

ct dosage for children.
Child’s dose = Adult dose x (Weight of child in pounds)/(150 pounds)

What dosage should be administered to a child weighing 28 pounds if the adult dose of a certain drug is 80 milligrams? Round your answer to the nearest whole milligram.
How much would a child have to weigh to receive the adult dosage? Explain why your answer is reasonable.

Answer:

You are <em>squaring x and -5 on the first equation</em>, and on the second equation you are <em>just squaring x and subtracting 5.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

And since on the first equation x and -5 are in parenthesis that means that the square goes to both of them.

And the second one there is no parenthesis so the square only goes to the x.

I hope this helps you.

Tracy needs to find the length and width of the equiptment storage room where she works. the room is 2 meters long than it is wi
ElenaW [278]
Rectangle:
P = 2 (L+W) but length is 2 meters longer than wide
then L = W + 2, So
P = 2 (L + W)
24 = 2(W+2+W)
24 = 2 (2 + 2W)
24 = 4 + 4W
So 4W = 24 -4 =20
W = 20/4= 5, L = 5+2= 7

Double check
24 = 2*(5+7) = 2 *12 = 24

I'm super confused on parts g and h because no formula is given, just the limit values. These are the values:
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

So we have the limit:

\lim_{x\to 4} (f\circ g)(x)

This is equivalent to:

\lim_{x\to 4} f(g(x))

To solve, we can use the following property:

\lim_{x \to c} f(g(x))=f(  \lim_{x \to c} g(x))

Therefore, our limit is the same as:

\lim_{x\to 4} f(g(x))\\=f(\lim_{x\to 4} g(x))

We are already given that the limit as x approaches 4 of g(x) is -2. Therefore:

=f(-2)

You simply need to evaluate this to solve the limit. I don't have enough information to solve this, so maybe you have something more.

Similarly, for the second one:

2)

We have:

\lim_{x\to 4} (g\circ f)(x)\\=\lim_{x\to 4}g(f(x))

Using the same property:

=g(\lim_{x\to 4} f(x))

And we are told that this is 16, so:

=g(16)

And we just need to evaluate this to find the limit.

I hope you find this helpful!
