An athlete tested positive for Methylhexaneamine in urine with a level of 0.90 µg/mL. At her appeal in the Court of Arbitration, she quotes a highly respected scientific publication that states that at levels of 1.0 µg/mL there is no performance enhancement. If the athlete’s levels are indeed below this threshold, the athlete can face a year’s suspension instead of a ban for life. Use the Estimate of Uncertainty to determine if the Athlete should be given a 1 year suspension or banned for life.

To estimate drug dosages, doctors use a patient’s body surface area (BSA)(in meters squared) using the formula BSA = √hm/60, where h is the height in centimeters and m is the mass in kilograms. Calculate the rate of change of BSA with respect to height for a person of constant mass m = 80 kg. Express answer in correct units.
The amount of calcium in physiologic fluids can be determined by a complexometric titration with EDTA. In one such analysis, a 0.100-mL sample of blood serum was made basic by adding 2 drops of NaOH and titrated with 0.001 M EDTA, requiring 0.238 mL to reach the end point. Report the concentration of calcium in the sample as miligrams of Ca per 100 mL. (Ca = 40.078 amu).
