A nurse administers vaccines to individuals
The nurse vaccinated 52 people on Wednesday, 58 on Thursday and 43 on Friday
The flu vaccine costs R49,00 per vaccine and the hepatitis vaccine costs R98,00
To find the total cost of the flu vaccines, we multiply the number of flu vaccines administered on each day by the cost per vaccine and add them up.
On Wednesday: 52 flu vaccines x R49/vaccine = R2548
On Thursday: 58 flu vaccines x R49/vaccine = R2842
On Friday: 43 flu vaccines x R49/vaccine = R2107
Total cost of flu vaccines: R2548 + R2842 + R2107 = R7497
To find the total cost of the hepatitis vaccines, we multiply the number of hepatitis vaccines administered on each day by the cost per vaccine and add them up.
On Wednesday: 0 hepatitis vaccines x R98/vaccine = R0
On Thursday: 0 hepatitis vaccines x R98/vaccine = R0
On Friday: 43 hepatitis vaccines x R98/vaccine = R4214
Total cost of hepatitis vaccines: R0 + R0 + R4214 = R4214
Therefore, the nurse administered a total of 153 vaccines (52 + 58 + 43) and the total cost of the vaccines was R7497 + R4214 = R11711.
