The blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of a person who has been drinking is approximated by the following

Question:

The blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of a person who has been drinking is approximated by the following formula. BAC = number of oz × % alcohol × 0.075 ÷ body wt in lb - hr of drinking × 0.015.

Calculate the BAC to the nearest thousandth for a 150-lb woman who, in 2 hr, has consumed two 6-oz glasses of wine, each having a 14% alcohol content. If the woman drank the same two glasses of wine over a longer period of time, how would that affect her BAC?
