                          Jenna's age                   Jessica's age

today                         x                               x + 5


in 5 years                 x+5 

5 years ago                                                   x + 5 - 5


Equality                  x + 5 = x + 5 - 5

=> x + 5 = x


The equation is x + 5 = x


That equation has not any solution, because it reduces to 5 = 0, which is an absurd.


So, the conclusion is that information given by Jenna is wrong.


It is logical: if the difference of the ages is 5, in five years Jenna will have 10 years more than what her sister had 5 years ago, no 5 as she told Jessica.

Ampicillin 250 mg IM every 12 hours is ordered. After reconstitution, there's 125 mg/mL. How many mL would you give?
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

Correct choice is C. 2 mL.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Ampicillin 250 mg IM every 12 hours is ordered. After reconstitution, there's 125 mg/mL. Now we need to find about how many mL would you give.

Let number of ml needed = x.

Since ratio of mg per mL will be fixed so we get equation:

\frac{mL}{mg}=\frac{x}{250}=\frac{1}{125}

\frac{x}{250}=\frac{1}{125}

x=\frac{1}{125} \times 250

x=\frac{250}{125}

x=2

Hence correct choice is C. 2 mL.

Brenna is buying 4.25 feet of ribbon for $1.95 a foot. She determines the product of the two numbers to determine the actual cos
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

4.25 feet of ribbon cost around $ 8.29

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Length of ribbon to be bought by Brenna = 4.25 feet

Cost of 1 foot of ribbon = $1.95

Total or actual cost of the ribbon =

\text{Total length of ribbon}\times \text{Cost per unit length of ribbon}

Cost of ribbon to be purchased by Brenna =

\text{Estimation of cost of ribbon:}

4.25\times 1.95 = 8.2875 \approx \$8.29

Thus, to find the actual cost Brenna should use the product of total length of ribbon to be bought and the unit cost of the ribbon.

Hence, 4.25 feet of ribbon cost around $ 8.29
