a 680g patient comes in with diarrhea. the doctor orders anti-diarrhea medication at a dosage of 15 mcg/kg TID x 3 days. rhye medication concentration 50mcg/ml. What is the patients dose in MCG? What is the total volume of medication you will send home?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

dose in MCG = 10.2 mcg

Total volume to be sent home = 1.836 ml (1836μl)

Step-by-step explanation:

weight of patient = 680g

dosage in mcg of medication = 15mcg/kg

This means that

for every 1kg weight, 15mcg is given,

since 1kg = 1000g, we can also say that for every 1000g weigh, 15mcg is given.

1000g = 15mcg

1g = 15/1000 mcg = 0.015 mcg

∴ 680g = 0.015 × 680 = 10.2 mcg

Dosage in MCG = 10.2 mcg

Next, we are also told ever ml volume of the drug contains 50 mcg weight of the drug (50mcg/ml). This can also be written as:

50mcg = 1 ml

1 mcg = 1/50 ml = 0.02 ml

∴ 10.2 mcg = 10.2 × 0.02 = 0.204 ml

since the medication is to be taken TID (three times daily) for 3 days, the total number of times the drug is to be taken = 9 times.

therefore, the total volume required = 0.204 × 9 = 1.836 ml (1836 μl)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The objective is to test if the proportion of "X: gloves fitness, categorized: Fit poorly and Fit well" is the same for two populations of interest, "male firefighters" and "female firefighters"

To do this you have to conduct a Chi-Square test of Homogeneity.

In the null hypothesis you have to state that the proportion of the  categories of the variable are the same for all the populations of interest.

Be

M: the firefighter is male

F: the firefighter is female

Y: represents the category that the gloves "fit poorly"

W: represents the category that the gloves "fit well"

The null hypothesis will be:

H₀: P(Y|M)=P(Y|F)=P(Y)

P(W|M)=P(W|F)=P(W)

H₁: At least one of the statements in the null hypothesis is false.

α: 0.01

To calculate the statistic under the null hypothesis you have to calculate the expected frequencies first:

[tex]E_{ij}= O_{.j}*\frac{O_{i.}}{n}[/tex]

O.j= total of the j-column

Oi.= total of the i-row

n= total of observations

[tex]E_{11}= 547*\frac{152}{586} = 141.88[/tex]

[tex]E_{12}=39*\frac{152}{586}= 10.12[/tex]

[tex]E_{21}= 547*\frac{434}{586} = 405.12[/tex]

[tex]E_{22}= 39*\frac{434}{586} = 28.88[/tex]

[tex]X^2= sum \frac{(O_{ij}-E_{ij})^2}{E_{ij}} ~~~X^2_{(r-1)(c-1)}[/tex]

r= number of rows (in this case 2)

c=number of columns (in this case 2)

[tex]X^2_{H_0}= \frac{(132-141.88)^2}{141.88} +\frac{(20-10.12)^2}{10.12} +\frac{(415-405.12)^2}{405.12} +\frac{(19-28.88)^2}{28.88} = 13.95[/tex]

Using the critical value approach, you have to remember that this test is always one-tailed to the right, meaning that you'll have only one critical value from which the rejection region is defined:

[tex]X^2_{(r-1)(c-1);1-\alpha }= X^2_{1;0.99}= 6.635[/tex]

The decision rule is then:

If [tex]X^2_{H_0}[/tex] ≥ 6.635, reject the null hypothesis.

If [tex]X^2_{H_0}[/tex] < 6.635, do not reject the null hypothesis.

The calculated value is greater than the critical value, the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

So at a 1% level you can conclude that this test is significant. This means that the proportions of gloves fitness, categorized in "Fit poorly" and "Fit well" are different for the male and female firefighters populations.

I hope this helps!

Answer:

The Chi - Square Test Statistics is  13.98

p-value = 0.0002

CONCLUSION: Since the p-value is less than the level of significance ; (i.e p-value < ∝) we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis.

Thus; there is a difference in the population proportion of glove fitness for the two genders.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given ; the structure of the table can be well represented as follows;

Observed data                  Males                    Females             Total

Gloves fit poorly                132                         20                       152

Gloves fit well                    415                         19                        434

Total                                   547                        39                       586

Expected data                  Males                   Females              Total

Gloves fit poorly

Gloves fit well

Total

The objective of this question is to  use the chi-square test to determine if there is a difference in the population proportion of glove fitness for the two genders.

We call represent the hypothesis as follows:

The null hypothesis: [tex]H_o:[/tex] states that there is no difference  in the population proportion of glove fitness for the two genders.

The alternative hypothesis: [tex]H_a[/tex] states that there is difference  in the population proportion of glove fitness for the two genders.

The expected frequency of a particular cell can be calculated by multiplying the sum of the rows and columns together, then dividing it by the Total sum

For row 1 column 1 (gloves fit poorly (male) ; we have:

[tex]= \dfrac{547*152}{586} =141.884\\[/tex]

For row 2 column 1 (gloves fit well(male) ; we have:

[tex]= \dfrac{547*434}{586} =405.116[/tex]

For row 1 column 2 (gloves fit poorly (female)) ; we have:

[tex]= \dfrac{39*152}{586} =10.116[/tex]

For row 2 column 2 ( gloves fit well ( female ) ; we have:

[tex]= \dfrac{39*434}{586} =28.884[/tex]

Thus; we can have the complete table to now be:

Observed data                  Males                    Females             Total

Gloves fit poorly                132                         20                       152

Gloves fit well                    415                         19                        434

Total                                   547                        39                       586

Expected data                  Males                   Females              Total

Gloves fit poorly                141.884                 10.116                  152

Gloves fit well                    405.116                28.884                 434

Total                                    547                        39                     586

The Chi - Square Test Statistics can be calculated via the formula:

[tex]X^2 = \dfrac{\sum (f_o-f_e)^2}{f_e}[/tex]

where;

[tex]f_o[/tex] = observed data frequency

[tex]f_e[/tex] = expected data frequency

The Chi - Square Test Statistics is as follows:

[tex]=\dfrac{(131-141.884)^2}{141.884} + \dfrac{(20-10.116)^2}{10.116}+ \dfrac{(415-405.116)^2}{405.116}+ \dfrac{(39-28.884)^2}{28.884}[/tex]

= 0.68+9.6+0.2+3.5

= 13.98

We are given the level of significance ∝  to be = 0.01

numbers of rows = 2; number of column = 2

Thus; the degree of freedom = (2-1)(2-1) = 1×1 = 1

Using the Excel Function : [ = CHISQ.DIST.RT²(X²,df)]

p-value = 0.0002

CONCLUSION: Since the p-value is less than the level of significance ; (i.e p-value < ∝) we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis.

Thus; there is a difference in the population proportion of glove fitness for the two genders.

Answers

Answer:

7, 7, 11 are the three numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mode of the three numbers = 7

Range of numbers i.e. difference between the smallest and the largest number is = 4

Value of highest number card [tex]\neq[/tex] 7

As per the definition of Mode:

Mode is the number that occurs the most number of times in the given set of numbers. In other words, mode is the number whose frequency is the highest in the given set of numbers.

Here, we have three numbers and mode is 7 that means 7 occurs at least  two times in the three numbers.

Also, we are given that 7 is not highest number, plus 4 is the range that means 7 occurs exactly two times out of three numbers.

So, two numbers are 7 and 7.

7 is not highest and 4 is the range, so third number = 7+4 = 11

So, the numbers on the cards are 7, 7 and 11.

Access to the website is free but revenues are generated by selling ads that are posted on the website. In the following month, the website has committed to displaying ads to 650,000 viewers, i.e., 650,000 impressions. Based on data from previous months the traffic to the website is estimated to be normally distributed with a mean of 850,000 viewers and a standard deviation of 150,000.

How many impressions should the web publisher have taken on, to be able to guarantee a 95% service level?

Answers

Answer:

1096750 impressions

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean = 850,000

Standard deviation = 150,000

If we assume that X should be the numbers of impressions created;

Then ;

[tex]X \approx N (\mu , \sigma^2)[/tex]

Now ; representing x as the value for the number of impression needed ; Then ;

[tex]P(X>x) = 0.95[/tex]

[tex]P(\dfrac{X- \mu}{\sigma} > \dfrac{x -850000}{150000}) = 0.95[/tex]

[tex]P(Z> \dfrac{ x -850000}{150000}) = 0.95[/tex]

From normal tables:

[tex]P(Z >1.645) = 0.95[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{x - 850000}{150000} =1.645[/tex]

(x- 850000) = 1.645(150000)

x - 850000 = 246750

x = 246750 + 850000

x = 1096750 impressions

What is the value of d21+d22+d23 given the matrix equation below?

Answers

Answer:

B. 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The question lacks the required diagram. Find the diagram in the attachment.

Before we can find d21, d22 and d23, we need to get the matrix D first as shown in the attached solution.

On comparison as shown in the attachment, d21 = 11, d22 = -10 and d23 = 7

Note that d21 refers to element in the second row and first column of the matrix

d22 is the element in the second row and second column of the matrix

d23 is the element in the second row and third column of the matrix

d21+d22+d23 = 11-10+7

d21+d22+d23 = 8

A university warehouse has received a shipment of 25 printers, of which 10 are laser printers and 15 are inkjet models. If 6 of these 25 are selected at random to be checked by a particular technician, what is the probability that exactly 3 of those selected are laser printers (so that the other 3 are inkjets)

Answers

Answer:

The probability is 0.31

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability, we will consider the following approach. Given a particular outcome, and considering that each outcome is equally likely, we can calculate the probability by simply counting the number of ways we get the desired outcome and divide it by the total number of outcomes.

In this case, the event of interest is  choosing 3 laser printers and 3 inkjets. At first, we have a total of 25 printers and we will be choosing 6 printers at random. The total number of ways in which we can choose 6 elements out of 25 is [tex]\binom{25}{6}[/tex], where [tex]\binom{n}{k} = \frac{n!}{(n-k)!k!}[/tex]. We have that [tex]\binom{25}{6} = 177100[/tex]

Now, we will calculate the number of ways to which we obtain the desired event. We will be choosing 3 laser printers and 3 inkjets. So the total number of ways this can happen is the multiplication of the number of ways we can choose 3 printers out of 10 (for the laser printers) times the number of ways of choosing 3 printers out of 15 (for the inkjets). So, in this case, the event can be obtained in [tex]\binom{10}{3}\cdot \binom{15}{3} = 54600[/tex]

So the probability of having 3 laser printers and 3 inkjets is given by

[tex] \frac{54600}{177100} = \frac{78}{253} = 0.31[/tex]

It is currently believed that the probabilities of these four possibilities are .4, .3, .2, and .1, respectively. What is the expected completion time (in months) of this project from now?

Answers

Answer:

The expected completion time of this project from now is 2.5 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the expected completion time for the project, we multiply each projection by it's probability.

We have that:

0.4 = 40% probability it takes 2 months to complete the project.

0.3 = 30% probability that it takes 2.5 months to complete the project.

0.2 = 20% probability it takes 3 months to complete the project.

0.1 = 10% probability it takes 3.5 months to complete the project.

What is the expected completion time (in months) of this project from now?

E = 0.4*2 + 0.3*2.5 + 0.2*3 + 0.1*3.5 = 2.5

The expected completion time of this project from now is 2.5 months.

For Low; the total on the row is 30 ;

so for Yes: we have 20/30 × 100 = 66.7

for No ; we have 10/30 × 100 = 33.3

For Medium ; the total on the row is 50 ;

so for Yes: we have 15/50 × 100 = 30

In the new study the research wants to have the standard error for the sample mean to be no more than 0.05 g/dl. Find the required sample size for the new study.

Answers

Answer:

A sample size of at least 531 is required.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are lacking the confidence level to solve this question, so i am going to use a 90% confidence level.

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1-0.9}{2} = 0.05[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex].

So it is z with a pvalue of [tex]1-0.05 = 0.95[/tex], so [tex]z = 1.645[/tex]

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

Find the required sample size for the new study.

A sample size of at least n is required.

n is found when [tex]M = 0.05[/tex]

We have that [tex]\sigma = 0.7[/tex]

So

[tex]M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.05 = 1.645*\frac{0.7}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.05\sqrt{n} = 1.645*0.7[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.645*0.7}{0.05}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{1.645*0.7}{0.05})^{2}[/tex]

[tex]n = 530.4[/tex]

Combine like terms: -2c + 2c = 0

23 + 11a + 0 = 12 + -2c + 2c

23 + 11a = 12 + -2c + 2c

Combine like terms: -2c + 2c = 0

Mario’s Restaurant is planning to tile the floor of their outdoor dining area, represented by the composite figure below. The tile costs $1.50 per square foot. How much should the restaurant plan to spend on tile to complete the job?

Answers

Answer:

Cost of tiling the floor of the restaurant = $346.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Mario's restaurant is in the shape of a composite figure.

Area of the composite figure = Area of the rectangle + Area of trapezoid

Area of the rectangle = 3 × 9

Step-by-step explanation:

g Gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 10 ft3/min, and its coarseness is such that it forms a pile in the shape of a cone whose base diameter and height are always equal. How fast is the height of the pile increasing when the pile is 6 ft high

Answers

Answer:

0.3537 feet per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 10 ft3/min. Since we are told that the shape formed is a cone, the rate of change of the volume of the cone.

[tex]\dfrac{dV}{dt}=10$ ft^3/min[/tex]

[tex]\text{Volume of a cone}=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h[/tex]

If the Base Diameter = Height of the Cone

The radius of the Cone = h/2

Therefore,

[tex]\text{Volume of the cone}=\dfrac{\pi h}{3} (\dfrac{h}{2}) ^2 \\V=\dfrac{\pi h^3}{12}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Rate of Change of the Volume}, \dfrac{dV}{dt}=\dfrac{3\pi h^2}{12}\dfrac{dh}{dt}[/tex]

Therefore: [tex]\dfrac{3\pi h^2}{12}\dfrac{dh}{dt}=10[/tex]

We want to determine how fast is the height of the pile is increasing when the pile is 6 feet high.

[tex]When h=6$ feet$\\\dfrac{3\pi *6^2}{12}\dfrac{dh}{dt}=10\\9\pi \dfrac{dh}{dt}=10\\ \dfrac{dh}{dt}= \dfrac{10}{9\pi}\\ \dfrac{dh}{dt}=0.3537$ feet per minute[/tex]

When the pile is 6 feet high, the height of the pile is increasing at a rate of 0.3537 feet per minute.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The objective is to  compare the VMT of mid western households and southwestern households. For this two independent random samples of households from both areas and their VMT were recorded:

Be

X₁: VMT of a mid western household

Midwest

16.2 , 14.6 , 11.2 , 24.4 , 9.4 12.9 , 18.6 , 16.6 , 20.3 ,15.1 , 17.3 , 10.8 , 16.6 , 20.9 , 18.3

n₁= 15

∑X₁= 243.20

∑X₁²= 4175.98

X[bar]₁= 16.21

S₁²= 16.64

S₁= 4.08

X₂: VMT of a southwestern household

22.2, 19.2 , 9.3 , 24.6 ,20.2 , 15.8, 18.0 , 12.2 , 20.1 , 16.0 , 17.5 , 18.2 , 22.8 , 11.5

n₂= 14

∑X₂= 247.60

∑X₂²= 4633.24

X[bar]₂= 17.69

S₂²= 19.56

S₂= 4.42

The parameters of study are the population means, if the claim is that the VMT of households is different in both areas, then you'd expect the population means to be different too.

The hypotheses are:

H₀: μ₁ = μ₂

H₁: μ₁ ≠ μ₂

α: 0.05

Assuming both populations are normal and since both population variances are equal the test to apply is an independent samples t test pooled variance:

[tex]t= \frac{(X[bar]_1-X[bar]2)-(Mu_1-Mu_2)}{Sa*\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2} } } ~~t_{n_1+n_2-2}[/tex]

[tex]Sa^2= \frac{(n_1-1)S_1^2+(n_2-1)S_2^2}{n_1+n_2-2} = \frac{14*16.67+13*19.56}{15+14-2}= \frac{487.66}{27} = 18.06[/tex]

Sa= 4.249= 4.25

[tex]t_{H_0}= \frac{(16.21-17.69)-0}{4.25*\sqrt{\frac{1}{15} +\frac{1}{14} } }= -0.937= -0.94[/tex]

Critical value approach:

This test is two-tailed, this means that the rejection region is divided in two tails:

[tex]t_{n_1+n_2-2; \alpha /2}= t_{27; 0.025}= -2.052[/tex]

[tex]t_{n_1+n_2-2; 1-\alpha /2}= t_{27; 0.975}= 2.052[/tex]

The decision rule is:

If [tex]t_{H_0}[/tex] ≤ -2.052 or if [tex]t_{H_0}[/tex] ≥ 2.052, reject the null hypothesis.

If -2.052 < [tex]t_{H_0}[/tex] < 2.052, do not reject the null hypothesis.

The calculated value is within the "no rejection region" so the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis.

Using the p-value approach:

The p-value is the probability of obtaining a value as extreme as the calculated value of the statistic under the null hypothesis ([tex]t_{H_0}[/tex]). Just as the significance level, the p-value is two tailed, you can calculate it as:

P(t₂₇ ≤ -0.93) + P(t₂₇ ≥ 0.93)= P(t₂₇ ≤ -0.93) + (1 - P(t₂₇ < 0.93)= 0.1796 + ( 1 - 0.8204)= 0.1796*2= 0.3592

p-value= 0.3592

The p-value is always compared to the significance level, the decision rule for this approach is:

If the p-value ≤ α, reject the null hypothesis.

If the p-value > α, do not reject the null hypothesis.

The p-value is greater than α, so the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis.

At a 5% significance level, there is no significant evidence to reject the null hypothesis. You can conclude that the population means of the VMT for households of the Midwest  South ers households.

Please help! I don’t get what I’m supposed to put in those boxes

Answers

The volume of any cylinder is

V = pi*r^2*h

where r is the radius and h is the height. We are keeping r = 2 the same the entire time, as the first part of the instructions indicate. In contrast, h is allowed to vary or change based on the values shown in the table.

If h = 1, then,

V = pi*r^2*h

V = pi*2^2*1

V = pi*4

V = 4pi

So you'll write "4pi", without quotes of course, in the V column next to h = 1. This first row shows a height of 1 leads to a volume of 4pi.

-------------

Then if h = 2, we have,

V = pi*r^2*h

V = pi*2^2*2

V = pi*8

V = 8pi  ... this is written in the second box

and finally if h = 3, we would say,

V = pi*r^2*h

V = pi*2^2*3

V = pi*12

V = 12pi .... and this is placed in the third box

---------------

The values of V we got were: 4pi, 8pi, 12pi

This is for h = 1,2 and 3 respectively in that order.

The sequence 4,8,12 is linear because we are adding 4 each time. More specifically, it fits the equation y = 4x where x = 1,2,3. Think of y = 4x as y = 4x+0 and that fits the slope intercept form y = mx+b.

Will give Brainliest Talia took the bus from her home to the bank and then walked back to her home along the same route. The round trip took 0.9 hours total. The bus traveled at an average speed of 40 km/h and she walked at an average speed of 5 km/h. The rate of Trip 2 is blank km/h. The time of Trip 1 is blank hours.

Answers

Answer:

The rate of trip 2 is 5 km/h

The time of trip 1 is 0.9-x

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of trip 2 is 5 km/h because it tells you she walked at an avg speed of 5 km/h.

The time of trip 1 is 0.9-x. It's because the time in trip 2 is x, and it says the total is 0.9. So just subtract 0.9-x.

Steve wants to use his 18% employee discount to buy a video game that has a regular price of $69.99. A 6.5% sales tax is applied to the discounted price. How much will he pay for the game, including sales tax?

Answers

Answer:

$61.12

Step-by-step explanation:

Price of the Video game = $69.99

Discount = 18%

Discount price = 18% of $69.99

                         = $69.99*18/100

                         = $12.6

Price after Discount = Price - Discount price

                                  = $69.99 - $12.6

                                  = $57.39

Sales tax = 6.5% applied to the discounted price

                = 6.5% of $57.39

sales tax in dollars = $57.39 * 6.5/100

                               = $3.73

The amount he pays for the game = $57.39 + $3.73

                                                          = $61.12

The population of bats in a large cave is 7000 and is growing exponentially at 14% per year. Write a function to represent the population of bats after
tt
t years, where the monthly rate of change can be found from a constant in the function.

Answers

Answer:

y=7000+14^t

Step-by-step explanation:

This equation shows that the original population of bats was 7000 and grows exponentially at a rate of 14% per year.

I put the graph below so you can see it.

In this exercise we have to identify how to write an exponential function from the data informed in the text, in this way we find that:

[tex]y=7000+14^t[/tex]

From the information given in the statement we find that:

The original population of bats was 7000Rate of 14% per year.

Then writing this function as:

Do all perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes?

Answers

Not necessarily, the more correct definition is opposite reciprocal slopes.

The example used is how horizontal and vertical lines are parallel. Horizontal lines have a slope of 0, also written as 0/1. However, vertical lines have an undefined slope, which isn't necessarily negative. It has a slope of 1/0, which is undefined. In this case, the reciprocal isn't negative.

In all other cases (1 and -1, 2 and -1/2, etc.) yes, the perpendicular pairs are negative and reciprocal.

Describe the rate of change of f(x)=lnx. Your answer should explain how the slope changes when x is small and when x is large.

Answers

Answer:

By plotting the graph of f(x)=lnx, you can conclude that when x is small, dy/dx has a larger value. For instance, the gradient of the curve when x=0.5 is 2. However, as you move along the x axis, you will see that the graph levels off, indicating a decrease in the slope, or dy/dx. For example, if x=10, dy/dx = 0.1 and when x=20, dy/dx= 0.05 and so on. Eventually, when x is large enough the value of dy/dx will be negligible.

Thus, as x increases, the slope decreases.

Answer:

Explanation shown below

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=lnx;

The rate of change is defined as dy/dx;

dy/dx[Inx] = 1/x

and dy/dx is defined as the slope

The nature of the slope is as x increases ; the slope decreases and conversely meaning as x decreases, the slope increases.

A local metal-finishing plant has identified a wastewater stream that contains 5.15 wt% chromium (Cr) and devised the following approach to lowering risk and recovering the valuable metal. The wastewater stream is fed to a treatment unit that removes 95% of the chromium in the feed and recycles it to the plant. The residual liquid stream leaving the treatment unit is sent to a waste lagoon. The treatment unit has a maximum capacity of 4500 kg wastewater/h. If wastewater leaves the finishing plant at a rate higher than the capacity of the treatment unit, the excess (anything above 4500 kg/h) bypasses the unit and combines with the residual liquid leaving the unit, and the combined stream goes to the waste lagoon.(a) Without assuming a basis of calculation, draw and label a flowchart of the process. (b) Waste water leaves the finishing plant at a rate m_ 1 ? 6000 kg/h. Calculate the flow rate of liquid tothe waste lagoon, m_ 6?kg/h?, and the mass fraction of Cr in this liquid, x6(kg Cr/kg).
