Mg required per pound = 249/153 = 1.63mg

Therefore medicine required=  102 *1.63= 166.26g

Answer: 166 milligrams

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A certain medicine is given in an amount proportional to a patient's body weight.

A patient weighing 153 pounds requires 249 milligrams of medicine.

Let x be the amount of medicine required by a patient weighing 102 pounds, then we have the following equation:-

\dfrac{x}{102}=\dfrac{249}{153}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{249\times102}{153}=166

Hence, the amount of medicine required by a patient weighing 102 pounds = 166 milligrams.

Jackson is conducting an experiment for his Physics class. He attaches a weight to the bottom of a metal spring. He then pulls t
olga55 [171]
We have that the spring is going to have a sin or a cos equation. We have that the maximum distance of the spring is 6 inches and it is achieved at t=0. Let's fix this as the positive edge. Until now, we have that the function is of the form:
6sin(at+B). We have that the period is 4 minutes and hence that the time component in the equation needs to make a period (2pi) in 4 minutes. Thus 4min*a=2p, a=2p/4=pi/2. In general, a=2pi/T where a is this coefficient, T is the period. Finally, for B, since sin(pi/2)=1, we have that B=pi/2 because when t=0, we have that 6sin(B)=6. Substituting, we have f(t)=6sin(pi*t/2+pi/2)=6cos(pi*t/2)
by trigonometric identities.

What additional information could be used to prove that ΔXYZ ≅ ΔFEG using ASA or AAS? Check all that apply.
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer: ∠Z ≅ ∠G and XZ ≅ FG or ∠Z ≅ ∠G and XY ≅ FE  are the additional information could be used to prove that ΔXYZ ≅ ΔFEG using ASA or AAS.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: ΔXYZ and ΔEFG such that ∠X=∠F

To prove they are congruent by using ASA or AAS conruency criteria

we need only one angle and side.

1. ∠Z ≅ ∠G(angle) and XZ ≅ FG(side)

so we can apply ASA  such that ΔXYZ ≅ ΔFEG.

2. ∠Z ≅ ∠G (angle)and ∠Y ≅ ∠E (angle), we need one side which is not present here.∴we can not apply ASA  such that ΔXYZ ≅ ΔFEG.

3. XZ ≅ FG (side) and ZY ≅ GE (side), we need one angle which is not present here.∴we can not apply ASA  such that ΔXYZ ≅ ΔFEG.

4. XY ≅ EF(side) and ZY ≅ FG(side), not possible.

5. ∠Z ≅ ∠G(angle) and XY ≅ FE(side),so we can apply ASA  such that

ΔXYZ ≅ ΔFEG.
