The recommended dose of Vancocin® for a severe staphylococcal infectionis 40 mg/kg/day.  The adult weighs 180 pounds and is to receive the
medication IV q6h (every six hours).  How many mg can the adult receive
per day?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 180lb=81.6kg

(40 mg)/(1kg) = (xmg)/(81.6kg)

40 * 81.6 = x

3264 =x

3264mg

(24hr)/(6hr) = 4hr

3264*4

13056 mg/day

What are the zeros of the polynomial function: f(x) = x3 + x2 – 6x ? ...?

Answers

The solution to the problem is as follows:

  
x³ + x² − 6x = 0 
x (x² + x − 6) = 0 
x (x − 2) (x + 3) = 0 
x = 0, 2, −3 


f(x) = 2x³ + 5x² + 6x − 4 
f(−x) = −2x³ + 5x² − 6x − 4 

Let's look at signs only and how many sign changes there are: 
f(x) = + + + − 
1 sign change ----> 1 positive root 
f(−x) = − + − − 
2 sign changes ----> 2 or 0 negative roots 

Min. number of real roots = 1 ----> max. number of complex roots = 2 
Max. number of real roots = 3 ----> min. number of complex roots = 0

A rollercoaster ride reaches a height of 80 feet before it sharply drops. The height above the ground of the rollercoaster car during the drop is modeled by the function, h(t)=10t2−40t+80 , where t is measured in seconds since the car started its decline. The model is accurate for 0≤t≤4 . On this portion of the ride, how long does the car take to reach a minimum height from the ground before rising again?

Answers

Answer:

Therefore the car takes 2 s to reach a minimum height from the ground before rising again.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a roller coaster ride reach a height of 80 feet.

The height above the ground of the roller coaster is modeled by the function

h(t)=10t²-40t+80

where t is measured in second.

h(t)=10t²-40t+80

Differentiating with respect to t

h'(t)= 10(2t)-40

⇒h'(t)=20t-40

To find the minimum height we set h'(t)=0

∴20t-40=0

⇒20t =40

⇒t=2

The height of the roller coaster minimum when t=2 s.

The minimum height of of the roller coaster is

h(2)= 10(2)²-40.2+80

     =40-80+80

     =40 feet.

Therefore the car takes 2 s to reach a minimum height from the ground before rising again.

Answer:

2s
