Sample Response: Each base must be treated separately. Since each base is raised to a negative exponent, they should both be in the denominator of the fractions. The simplified form of the expression has 1 in the numerator and r to the 8th power times s to the 5th power in the denominator.

The t value for a 99% confidence interval estimation based upon a sample of size 10 is
Aliun [14]
Answer:
For a sample size of 10, the t-value is about 3.25 (from tables) at a 99% confidence interval.

Explanation:
When the standard deviation for the population is not known, the confidence interval estimate for the population mean is performed with the Student's t-distribution.
The confidence interval for the mean is calculated as
(\Bar{x}- t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} , \, \Bar{x}+ t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}
where
 \Bar{x} = sample mean,
s = sample standard deviation,
t = t-value (provided in tables),
n =  sample size.

When reading the t-value, (n-1) is called the df or degrees of freedom.

The recommended single dose for a particular drug is 100 mg. How many doses can be obtained from 20 grams of the drug?
Lisa [10]

Answer:

B. 200 doses

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

1 dose is required for 100 mg,

Since, 1 mg = 0.001 g,

⇒ 100 mg = 0.1 g

⇒ 1 dost is required for 0.1 g,

Thus, the ratio of doses and quantity ( in gram ) is \frac{1}{0.1}=10

Let x be the doses required for 20 grams,

So, the ratio of doses and quantity is \frac{x}{20}

\implies \frac{x}{20}=10

\implies x=200

Hence, 200 doses can be obtained from 20 grams of the drug.

Option 'B' is correct.
