c. If the average basal rate of oxygen consumption for an adult is 15 L/hour, then calculate how many hours of oxygen use will you get from the 4.7 L tank?

Respuesta :

Answer:

0.3hrs

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Average basal rate  = 15L/hr

Volume of oxygen  = 4.7L

Unknown:

Hours of oxygen use  = ?

Solution:

Now to solve this rate problem, we need to find the time;

 Hours of oxygen use  = [tex]\frac{volume of oxygen }{average basal rate}[/tex]  

 Hours of oxygen use  = [tex]\frac{4.7}{15}[/tex]   = 0.3hrs
