Answer 2

56 tablets, $24.08

Step-by-step explanation:

BID stands for 'bis in die', which is a medical term in latin meaning 'twice a day'. So, if Rooney needs 2 tablets twice a day, it means he need 4 tablets every day (2x2=4). He then needs to follow this pattern for 14 days which equates to a total of 14x4=56. 56 tablets in total he needs to take. Now, if each pill is $0.43, and he needs a total of 56 tablets, then the total prescription cost will be 0.43x56=24.08. $24.08 dollars total prescription price for the total of 56 tablets.

Hope this helped!
