Answer 1

Answer:

0.101

Explanation:

For the man:

• Weight = 180 lbs

,

• Time, t= 1 hour

,

• Number of beers, n=5

,

• g=0.68

Using the given formula, we have that:

$\begin{gathered} b=-0.015t+\frac{2.84n}{wg} \\ =-0.015(1)+\frac{2.84\times5}{180\times0.68} \\ =-0.015+\frac{14.2}{122.4} \\ =0.101 \end{gathered}$

The blood alcohol content is 0.101.
