Answer:
The infant should be given 700 mg of Claforan every 8 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question involves proportional measures, and asks how many mg of Claforan the infant should be given every 8 hours.
For each kg, the infant should be given 50 mg of Clarofan. The infant weighs 14 kg, so he should be given 14*50 = 700 mg of Claforan every 8 hours.
Answer:
5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s and w represent hours spent traveling south and west, respectively. The problem statement tells us ...
s + w = 8 . . . . . . total trip time
344s + 351w = 2773 . . . . total mileage (using d = s·t)
By Cramer's rule, we can find the value of s as ...
s = (1(2773) -351(8))/(1(344) -351(1)) = -35/-7 = 5
The plane was heading south for 5 hours.

<em>Comment on Cramer's rule</em>
For the equations ...
ax +by = c
dx +ey = f
The solution for x can be found to be ...
x = (bf-ec)/(bd-ea)
Similarly, the solution for y is ...
y = (cd-fa)/(bd-ea)
There are 3 sides and 3 angles per shape, because they are both triangles. hope this helped you out!!!
