Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Daily dosage is 53 mg/kg(37 kg) = 1,961 mg

There are 24/4 = 6 four hour periods in each day.

So a four hour dosage should be 1961 / 6 = 327 mg

500 mg > 327 mg

So one tablet every 4 hours would exceed the recommended dosage by roughly 50%.

A closer dosage might be to take 1 tablet every 6 hours.

The suspension may be a better solution if effects of overdose are severe. A 5 mL dose every four hours would be very close to ideal.

I seriously need help.

Leni [432]

Let's go:

y = ax + b

{5 = 4a + b

{15 = - 6a + b

{5 = 4a + b

{- 15 = 6a - b

10a = - 10

a = - 1

5 = 4a + b

4.(-1) + b = 5

b - 4 = 5

b = 9

- 1; 9

y = -1x + 9

I hope I helped you.
