No because when you add any 2 sides the answer has to be bigger than the 3rd side
ex: 2+7=9
9 is too small, so the tips of the side that is 2ft would not touch the side that is 7ft
So you already have the formula for calculating the dosage for child with: C = a/(a+12)x 180 ml Not sure why you have double brackets
variables are: a = child's age, so everywhere you have an "a" replace it with the age of child.
Example: 5 year old child
C = 5/(5+12)*180= 5/(17)*180 = 5/3060 = .0016 ml or milligrams
Answer: The inverse of the linear function f(x)=2x+1 is f^(-1) (x) = (1/2)x-1/2
Solution
f(x)=2x+1
y=f(x)
y=2x+1
Isolating x: Subtracting 1 both sides of the equation:
y-1=2x+1-1
y-1=2x
Multiplying both sides of the equation by 1/2:
(1/2)(y-1)=(1/2)2x
(1/2)y-1/2=x
x=(1/2)y-1/2
Changing "x" by "f^(-1) (x)" and "y" by "x":
f^(-1) (x) = (1/2)x-1/2
