A client is using the carbohydrate counting method to meal plan for a consistent carbohydrate eating pattern. The nurse is preparing to administer insulin for this patient with their meal. The insulin needed for each carbohydrate choice is 1 unit of insulin. The patient follows a sliding scale of insulin as well that is incorporated with meals and bedtime. The sliding scale is as follows: blood sugar < 150 - no insulin blood sugar 151-200 - 1 unit blood sugar 201-250 - 2 units blood sugar 251-300 - 3 units The total carbohydrates for this meal is 64 grams. The patient's current blood sugar is 156 mg/dL. This meal will provide [carbchoice] carb choices, thus the total amount of insulin to administer is [insulin] units. *for carb choice - round to the nearest WHOLE number*

A boat is pulled toward a dock by a rope from the bow through a ring on the dock 10 feet above the bow. The rope is hauled in at a rate of 3 feet per second. At what rate is the distance between the boat and the dock changing when 26 feet of rope are out? Use the math editor (“Insert Math Equation” as needed on the toolbar) to enter your final answer. Show all work on your paper.

Determine whether Mean Value Theorem can be applied to on the closed interval [a, b] by answering the questions below. If the Mean Value Theorem can be applied, find all values of c in the open interval (a, b) that satisfy the conclusion of the Mean Value Theorem. Use the math editor (“Insert Math Equation” as needed on the toolbar) to enter your final answer. Show all work on your paper. Make sure to label your answers. a.) Continuous on [-5, 5]? Why or why not? b.) Differentiable on (-5, 5)? Why or why not? c.) Can we apply the Mean Value Theorem? d.) If so, find the values of c in [-5,5] for which
