Research has been done to determine the amount of feed, on a dry matter basis, that an animal should consume per pound of body weight. Veterinarians simply measure the weight of the animal, apply factors to account for unusual metabolic processes (athlete, pregnant, lactating, growing) and then use simple algebra to solve the equation.

∙ 11y agoFor the most part, veterinarians in private practice don't use a lot of equations; for the relatively rare times an equation is posted, the veterinarian has generally already solved the base equation for the variable needed and they simply plug the known variables into the equation and solve it. Most of the mathematics veterinarians use are actually dimensional analysis - converting one unit of measure to another unit of measure such as converting a dog's weight to the number of pills to give every so often to treat the dog's ear infection.

How do carpenters use rational equations?
They use rational equations for fun in the evening to relax.
Do veterinarians use heart meters?
Veterinarians use several heart meters in clinical practice, including pulsometers, EKG and the trusty stethoscope-and-watch method. For personal use (to measure a veterinarian's own heart rate), some veterinarians do wear heart meters, although this is not a requirement of the profession.
What is a group of linear equations that use the same variables?
a system of equations
Why do scientists use chemical equations instead of word equations?
its easier
What are some careers that use variables and equations?
There are many careers that use variables and equations regularly. Computer scientists, engineers, and scientists all depend on the use of variables and equations. Architects, plumbers, and home decorators also utilize variables and equations.
Where do you use formulating equations in life?
well, if you know all the formulating equations it will make you better at regular equations and regular equations can be used in everyday life
