Solution Steps

Step 1: Convert the total volume to milliliters

The total volume to be infused is 1 liter (L). Since 1 L = 1000 milliliters (ml), the total volume is: \[ 1 \, \text{L} = 1000 \, \text{ml}. \]

Step 2: Calculate the infusion time

The infusion rate is given as \(50 \, \text{ml/hour}\). To find the infusion time, divide the total volume by the infusion rate: \[ \text{Infusion Time} = \frac{\text{Total Volume}}{\text{Infusion Rate}} = \frac{1000 \, \text{ml}}{50 \, \text{ml/hour}}. \]

Step 3: Simplify the calculation

\[ \text{Infusion Time} = \frac{1000}{50} = 20 \, \text{hours}. \]

Final Answer

The infusion time is \(\boxed{20 \, \text{hours}}\).

In April 2014, Japan's Labor Ministry created a program that offered small- and mid-size Japanese companies a financial reward if they promoted female employees into managerial positions. The Japanese government projected that 400 companies would take advantage of the program which would award payments of up to 300,000 yen (approximately 3,500). Unfortunately, 17 months after the program's inception not one single company had applied for the reward. The ministry admitted that the requirements for receiving the reward may have been too difficult. In an effort to make the program work, the Japanese government lessened the criteria for obtaining the reward, streamlined the application process, and doubled the potential reward amount. In thinking of the diversity challenges that managers face globally, which of the following could explain why the Labor Ministry's program failed? Check all that apply. - There is a smaller percentage of Japanese males in the workforce than females - Japan still practices lifetime employment and age-based promotion - The percentage of women in leadership or managerial roles in Japan is already high - Over 60 percent of Japanese women leave work after their first child is born, often to avoid maternity harassment at work

Use PMT = P(r/n) / [1 - (1 + r/n)^(-nt)] to determine the regular payment amount, rounded to the nearest cent when a home is financed with a 140,000 30-year fixed-rate mortgage at 3.5%. a. Find the monthly payments and the total interest for the loan. b. Prepare a loan amortization schedule for the first three months of the mortgage. a. The monthly payment is . (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to the nearest cent as needed.) The total interest for the loan is . (Use the answer from part a to find this answer. Round to the nearest cent as needed.) b. Fill out the loan amortization schedule for the first three months of the mortgage below.
