question 28

Essay

True story from Erin's life: My 4-month old daughter got her shots, and we ended up needing to give her some tylenol for the pain. Infant Tylenol comes in liquid form, and the box indicates that there are 160 mg of
acetaminophen per 5 mL of liquid.
a. Complete the table, and then use it to draw a graph, where x is the amount of infant Tylenol in mL and y is the amount of acetaminophen in mg.
b. Is this a direct variation relationship? Why or why not? Be specific.
c. Find the slope of the line you graphed and explain what it means.
d. Write a linear equation that describes the amount of acetaminophen in mg (y)in terms of mL of infant tylenol (x).
e. In spite of the handy SimpleMeasure syringe, the directions don't give a dosage for children
under 2 years old. This is because it depends on weight and they want you to call the doctor so you don't get the math wrong. But I'm a math teacher, so I looked it up. For my daughter's weight at that time, the dosage is 115 mg of acetaminophen. How many mL of infant Tylenol did I need to give her?
