The daily dose for a patient that weighs 170 pounds is 510 milligrams.

60 milligrams/ 20 pounds = x milligrams/ 170 pounds cross multiply

10200= 20x divide by 20 on both sides

x= 510 milligrams

you would have to do 170/20 which equals 8.5 multiply that by 8

so his daily does would be 510 milligrams

Let x  <u>represent</u> the <u>number of cups</u> of Superfiber Will ate this week and let y  represent the number cups of Fiber Oats he ate this week.

1. If in Superfiber cereal, there are 5 grams of fiber in one cup, then in x cups there are 5\cdot x=5x grams of fiber.

2. If in Fiber Oats cereal, there are 4 grams of fiber in one cup, then in y cups there are 4\cdot y=4y grams of fiber.

3. The total amount of fiber Will ate is 5x+4y grams.

4. This week Will ate at least 30 grams of fiber. Then

5x+4y\ge 30.

Answer: correct choice is A.

Angle KLM and angle MLN are a linear pair. Ray LR is to be added to the diagram so that it is opposite ray LM. Which is true abo
lesya [120]
Angles RLN and MLK would be vertical angles.
Right. Vertical angles are formed when their sides share the same lines. RL shares the same line with LM and NL shares the same line with LK (see the attached diagram), so that means both angles form a vertical pair.

Angles RLN and MLN would be vertical angles.
Wrong.
They are linear pairs, because they are adjacent and supplementary. Adjacent angles share a side – in this case, LN. Supplementary angles sum 180°, which you can see is right because the other sides (ML and RL) are in the same line. RLN and MLN sum the same as the size of RLM, which is a line, so it’s 180°.  <span>

Angles RLN and KLM would be a linear pair. </span>
Wrong.
They would be a vertical pair (see definition of vertical pair in the first option). RL is opposed to LM and LN is opposed to KL.

Angles RLN and KLN would be a linear pair.
Wrong.
KLN is actually a line, so it’s actually 180°, so it can’t be a linear pair with KLN. Linear pairs sum 180°, which is impossible because KLN itself is already 180°, so any sum will throw a higher number.

We can calculate EE, the amount of euros that has the same value as DD U.S. dollars, using the equation E=\dfrac{17}{20}DE=
Rudik [331]

Answer:

We are given eqaution: e=\frac{17}{20}d , where e the amount of euros and d is the value as U.S. Dollars.


We need to find number of euros for 1 U.S. Dollar.


Plugging d=1 in the given equation


We get


e=\frac{17}{20}(1)


On simplfying , we get


e=\frac{17}{20}


Dividing 17 by 20, we get 0.85.


Therefore, there would be 0.85 euro have the same value as 1 U.S. Dollar.
