Answer:

0.041

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

• t=5 years

,

• N= 5 beers

,

• W=180 lbs

,

• Gender Constant, g = 0.68

The blood alcohol content is therefore:


\begin{gathered} B=-0.015t+(2.84\cdot N)/(W* g) \\ =-0.015(5)+(2.84*5)/(180*0.68) \\ =-0.075+(14.2)/(122.4) \\ =0.041 \end{gathered}

The blood alcohol content is 0.041. (or 4.1%).
