Hi!

We will solve this using proportions, like this:

24 patients in 5 hours

x patients in 8 hours

_________________

x = (24*8)/5

x = 192/5

x = 38,4

The nurse will be able to see 38,4 patients in a 8-hour period, but because it's patients we are talking about, living things which can't be represented in decimal form, the nurse will be able to see approximately 38 patients in a 8-hour period.

Hope this helps!

How are rational functions similar to linear, quadratic, or exponential functions? How are they different? When are these simila
jeyben [28]

Answer:

See explanation below for further details.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational consist of two real numbers such that:

\frac{a}{b} =c

If c is a polynomial with a certain grade, then, both the numerator and the denominator must be also polynomials and the grade of the numerator must be greater than denominator.

If c is linear function, that is, a first order polynomial, then a must be a (n+1)-th polynomial and b must be a n-th polynomial.

Example:

If a = x^{2} and b = x, then:

c = \frac{x^{2}}{x}

c = x

If c is a quadratic function, that is, a second order polynomial, then a must be a (n+1)-th polynomial and b must be a n-th polynomial.

Example

If a = 3\cdot x^{3} and b = x, then:

c = \frac{3\cdot x^{3}}{x}

c = 3\cdot x^{2}

But if c is an exponential, both the numerator and the denominator must be therefore exponential function and grade of each exponential function must different to the other.

Example

If a = 10^{2x} and b = 3\cdot 10^x, then:

c = \frac{10^{2\cdot x}}{3\cdot 10^{x}}

c = \frac{1}{3}\cdot 10^{2\cdot x -x}

c = \frac{1}{3}\cdot 10^x

Otherwise, c would be equal to a constant function, that is, a polynomial with a grade 0.

If a = 5\cdot e^{x} and b = -3\cdot e^{x}, then:

Example

c = \frac{5\cdot e^{x}}{-3\cdot e^{x}}

c = -\frac{5}{3}

It is worth to add that exponential functions can be a linear combination of single exponential function, similar to polynomials.

Example

5\cdot a^2\cdot x -9

An online retailer sells two packages of protein bars.
krok68 [10]
In order to find the price per bar, we divide the price by the amount of bars.  For the first one:

15.37/10 = $1.54 per bar

The second package:

15.35/12 = $1.28 per bar.

The 10-pack costs $1.54 per bar and the 12-pack costs $1.28 per bar.  The 12-pack has the better price per bar.

Now, let's look at the price per ounce.  We do this in a similar way.  We find the total amount of ounces in the package, and divide the price by the number of ounces.

In the first package, we multiply 10*2.1=21.  We have 21 ounces in the first package.  Now we divide 15.37/21.  In the first package, we have 0.73 dollars per ounce.

Now, let's look at the second package.  We start by multiplying 1.4*12=16.8.  There are 16.8 ounces in the package.  Now, we divide 15.35/16.8=0.91.  So, in the second package, we have 0.91 dollars per ounce.

The cost per ounce of the 10-pack is $0.73 and the cost per ounce of the 12-pack is $0.91.  The first package has the better price per ounce.

The better explanation is the second one, because I prefer the lower price per ounce, I think that the 1st pack is the better buy.
