Answer: So, your relative takes N tablets each 6 hours. a day has 24 hours, and 24/6 = 4, so he takes N tablets 4 times per day, so he takes 4*N tablets.
each tablet has 200mg, and 2.3 g (or 2300 mg) is toxic.
this means that 4*N*200mg must be less than 2300, if we are seeking for the maximum N possible, then:
4*N*200mg = 2300mg
4*N = 2300/200 = 11.5
N = 11.5/4 = 2.87
if you round up this number, you will end up taking more than 2.3g of tylenol per day, this implies that N must be equal to 2.
So your relative needs to take maximum 2 tablets per day.
Answer:
a and b.
Step-by-step explanation:
I’ll explain by giving an example.
Let’s say that: a=3;b=4;c=5; => they all are consecutive -> their sum is 12.
=> if we use a) n=3 => 3*n+3=3*3+3=12 => correct.
b) n+(n+1)+(n+2)= 3+4+5=12=> correct.
c)n+2n+3n=3+6+9=18=>incorrect.
d)3n=3*3=9=>incorrect.
It is my opinion that it is C) but i am not sure, you might be correct though...
