20. You may already use algebra in your daily life. How do you imagine that you will use basic algebraic equations in your healthcare career? Explain.

Answers

Answer 1

Depending on the path that we decide to take, the algebra can help us in many forms.

As an example in the pharmaceutical/medical area, the nurses and doctors use basic algebra formulas to calculate dosages on different drugs depending on variables such as the weigh of each patient (commonly expressed as X or Y).

They used to have some paper sheets with formulas for different drug preparations (liquid ones particularly) within hospitals to avoid errors in medication.

As a healthcare provider, it is important to be able to read vital signs. Many of these are expressed as algebraic equations. Such equations can also be important when it comes to administering the right doses of medicine or converting different units of measurement.

Melissa deposits $5000 into an account that pays simple interest at a rate of 4% per year. How much interest will she be paid in the first 2 years?

Answers

Answer:

$400 is the intrest she will pay in the first 2 yrs

Step-by-step explanation:

principal (p) = 5000

time (t) = 2yrs

rate (r) = 4%

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Side length of cube = 7.3 cm

The volume of a cube is the cube of the side length.

V = (side length)³

Substitute the side length of the cube to determine the volume of the cube.

⇒ V = (s)³

⇒ V = (7.3)³

V = (7.3)(7.3)(7.3) = 389.017 cm³

three different purposes for determining the derivative.

Answers

Answer:

A derivative is a slope function. If you want to find the slope anywhere along the function, you can.

Explanation:

Given: What is the purpose of a derivative?

A derivative is a slope function: m=f'(x=value). If you want to find the slope anywhere along the function, you can.

If you want to find a tangent line at a specific point along the function you can, using the slope and the point: y−y1=m(x−x1)

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

A derivative is a slope function, so it allows you to find the slope anywhere along a function where it's continuous.

For example, the derivative of velocity is acceleration, which is applicable in real life.

You can also find a tangent line at a specific point by finding the slope of the function at that point and then using point-slope form [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex] to get your tangent line.

Mr. Jones is building the garage shown below. What is the volume of the garage?

Answers

Answer: 891 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

     We can break the garage into two different parts. The roof, triangular, and the rest, rectangular. I will start by solving for the rectangular part.

     V = L * W * H

     V = 12 ft * 9 ft * 7.5 ft

     V = 810 ft³

     Now, I will solve for the triangular part, the roof. First, 9 ft - 7.5 ft = 1.5 ft, so the height of just the roof is 1.5 ft.

     V = [tex]\frac{L * W * H}{2}[/tex]

     V = [tex]\frac{12 * 9* 1.5}{2}[/tex]

     V = [tex]\frac{162}{2}[/tex]

     V = 81 ft³

     Lastly, I will add the two different parts together.

810 ft³ + 81 ft³ = 891 ft³

a1 = 1 = 2×1 - 1

a2 = a1 + 2×2 - 1 = 2×1 - 1 + 2×2 - 1 = 2×(1+2) - 2

a3 = a2 + 2×3 - 1 = 2×(1+2+3) - 3

...

an = 2×(1+2+...+n) - n = 2×n×(n+1)/2 - n = n²

so,

a350 = 350² = 122,500

figure350 has 122,500 squares.

a1 = 1

a2 = a1 = 1

a3 = a2 + 5

a4 = a3 = 6

a5 = a4 + 9

a6 = a5 = 15

a7 = a6 + 13

a8 = a7 = 28

...

a(2n) = a(2n - 1)

a(2n - 1) = a(2(n-1) - 1) + 1 + 4(n - 1) = n×1 + 4(0+1+2+...+n-1) =

therefore,

a350 = a349

a349 = a(2×175 - 1) = 2×175² - 175 = 61,075

figure350 has 61,075 shaded squares.
