A patient is ordered to receive sodium supplementation by intravenous infusion of a sodium phosphate dibasic solution [Na2H PO4 , MW=141.96 g/mol]. The patient is ordered to receive 0.5 mEq of Na + ions per hour.
A 500 mL intravenous bag is prepared that contains 47 mL of a 1% solution of sodium phosphate dibasic. What should be the infusion rate (in units of mL/min) necessary to produce the ordered dose of 0.5 mEq/hr of sodium?
(Note: Consider the total solution volume to be 500 mL. Also assume the sodium phosphate dibasic salt completely disassociates in solution. Please do not assume the specifics of this question are exactly clinically relevant due to the variability in this question.)

1. Calculating inflation using a simple price index
Consider a fictional price index, the College Student Price Index (CSPI), based on a typical college student’s annual purchases. Suppose the following table shows information on the market basket for the CSPI and the prices of each of the goods in 2017, 2018, and 2019.
The cost of each item in the basket and the total cost of the basket are shown for 2017.
Perform these same calculations for 2018 and 2019, and enter the results in the following table.

Suppose the base year for this price index is 2017.
In the last row of the table, calculate and enter the value of the CSPI for the remaining years.
Between 2017 and 2018, the CSPI increased by
. Between 2018 and 2019, the CSPI increased by
.
Which of the following, if true, would illustrate why price indexes such as the CSPI might overstate inflation in the cost of going to college? Check all that apply.
Professors required each student to buy eight textbooks, regardless of the price.
As the price of textbooks increased, more and more students turned to the used-book market or chose not to buy textbooks at all, instead using the copies on reserve in the library.
The quality and design of calculators improved dramatically from 2017 to 2019. For example, calculators made in 2019 accept memory cards, whereas those made in 2017 do not, but this quality change is hard to measure.
A new, safe method of memory enhancement became available for purchase.

Problem 4. Consider ϕ : (Z100, +100) → (Z100, +100) defined by ϕ([x]100) = [41x + 19]100. a.) Show that ϕ is well-defined. b.) Use the fact that 61 · 41 = 2501 to argue that the function ϕ is one-to-one. c.) Is ϕ onto? Why or why not. Suppose that y is in the image of ϕ, find an element x so that ϕ(x) = y. [The answer will be dependent on the value of y.] Then prove that the found element works. d.) Is ϕ a homomorphism?

Assume you have a balance of $1400 on a credit card with an APR of 18%, or 1.5% per month. You start making monthly payments of $200, but at the same time you charge an additional $ 60 per month to the credit card.
Assume that interest for a given month is based on the balance for the previous month.
The following table shows how you can calculate your monthly balance. Complete and extend the table to show the balance at the end of each month until the debt is paid off. How long does it take to pay off the credit card debt?
Fill out the table row by row, and continue until the last full payment. (Round to the nearest cent as needed.)
