Answer:
B) (35, 260)
Step-by-step explanation:
A veterinarian will prescribe an antibiotic to a dog based on its weight. The effective dosage of the antibiotic is given by d ≥ 1∕5w2, where d is dosage in milligrams and w is the dog's weight in pounds. Which of the following ordered pairs gives an effective dosage of antibiotics for a 35-pound dog?
A) (35, 240)
B) (35, 260)
C) (260, 35)
D) (240, 35)
Ordered pairs is composed of pairs, usually an x coordinate and a y coordinate. It refers to a location of a point on the coordinate. It matches numbers to functions or relations.
Given the relation between d is dosage in milligrams and w is the dog's weight in pounds as d ≥ 1∕5w²
For a 35 pound dog (i.e w = 35 pound). The dosage is given as:
d ≥ 1∕5(35)² ≥ 245 milligrams.
For an ordered pair (x, y), x is the independent variable (input) and y is the dependent variable (output).
The dog weight is the independent variable and the dosage is the dependent variable.
From the ordered pairs, the best option is (35, 260) because 260 ≥ 240
66.5 divided by 3.5 is 19.
The average speed can be obtained by the formula:
If a boat travels 36 miles in 1.5 hours ans then in 14 miles in 0.75 hour, then find:
- total distance is 36+14=50 miles;
- total time: 1.5+0.75=2.25 hours.
Therefore,
miles per hour.
Answer: 
miles per hour.
An example of a one step equation would be 5+5=10
But equations with more than one step would be like: find the sum of 5+5 and then find 50% of the sum of 5+5
