MEDICINE 

Suppose a patient must take a blood pressure medication that is dispensed in 125-milligram tablets. The dosage is 15 milligrams per kilo gram of body weight and is given every 8 hours. If the patient weighs 25 kilograms, how many tablets would be needed for a 30-day supply? Use the formula n=24d÷8b×15÷125, where n is the number of tablets, d is the number of days the supply should last, and b is the body weight of the patient in kilograms.

Q53.

In 1950, the average price of a car was about \(2000. This may sound inexpensive, but the average income in 1950 was much less than it is now. To compare dollar amounts over time, use the formula V=ASC, where A is the old dollar amount, S is the starting year’s Consumer price index (CPI), C is the converting year’s CPI, and V is the current value of the old dollar amount. Buying a car for \)2000 in 1950 was like buying a car for how much money in 2000?

FIREWORKS 

Suppose you are about a mile from a firework display. You count 5 seconds between seeing the light and hearing the sound of the firework display. You estimate the viewing angle is about 4°. Using the information at the left, estimate the width of the firework display.

Information at the left

To estimate the width w in feet of a firework burst, use the formula w=20At. In this formula, A is the estimated viewing angle of the firework display and t is the time in seconds from the instant you see the light until you hear the sound.
