Answer:

<h2>3 caplets</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 1 caplet = 325 mg of medication, to calculate the number of caplet 975mg of medication will contain, we will follow the steps below;

Let 1 caplet = 325 mg of medication

x caplet = 975 mg of medication

Cross multiply

325 * x = 1 * 975

325x = 975

Divide both sides by 325

325x/325 = 975/325

x = 3

Hence 3 caplets contains 975 mg of medication.

To solve 16x18, I double and halve?

Goshia [24]

To solve 16x18, you may split it up into a smaller increment you understand. Like 16x2, which equals 32. (18/2 is 9) multiply 32 by 9. you get your answer 288.

Circle O has a center at (-2, -2) and a diameter of 10 units. What point lies on circle O?

Sophie [7]

The point r(-6,-5) lies on the circle.

Explanation

Given that the center of the circle=(-2,-2)

diameter=10 units

we have to determine which point among the given points lies on the circle.

radius=diameter/2=10/2=5 units

let (x,y) be a point on the circle

The distance between the center and (x,y) is equal to the radius of the circle

The distance between them= $\sqrt{(x-(-2))^2+y-(-2))^2}=5\\\\ \sqrt{(x+2)^2+(y+2)^2} =5\\\\$

squaring both sides $(x+2)^2+(y+2)^2=25\\$

The option (-6,-5) satisfies the equation

therefore the point that lies on the circle is (-6,-5)

1.An object falls from rest on a high tower and takes 5.0 s to hit the ground. Calculate the object’s position from the top of t

Arte-miy333 [17]

We will be using this equation for this problem
d = ut + ½.at²
Given:
initial velocity, u = 0 (falling from rest) 
acceleration, a = +9.80 m/s²(taking down as the convenient positive direction) 
Time = 1.0s, 2.0s, 3.0s, 4.0s, 5.0s 

Using .. d = ½.at² each time (each calculation is the distance from the top) 
For 1.0s .. d = ½ x 9.80 x (1²) = 4.90 m 
For 2.0s .. d = ½ x 9.80 x (2²) = 19.60 m 
3.0s .. d = 44.10m (you show the working for the rest) 
4.0s .. d = 78.40 m 
5.0s .. d = 122.50m 

Plot distance (displacement from the top) on the y-axis against time on the x-axis (label axes and give units for each).The line of best fit will be a smoothly upward curving line getting progressively steeper. Do not join graph points with straight lines.

Sully is a vocalist in a rock band. The table provided shows the number of tracks his band records and the respective number of

Alina [70]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change here will be the difference in the number of tracks divided by the difference in the number of albums.

Let's pick two random rows (it doesn't matter which two because they will produce the same result): (2, 16) and (4, 32).

The rate of change is: $\frac{32-16}{4-2} =\frac{16}{2} =8$
