Question

A woman who weighs approximately 180 pounds has two "double" mixed drinks in one hour. Which of the following is CORRECT?

A. She is impaired

B. She is not intoxicated.

C. She is likely intoxicated.

D. She is possibly impaired.

Answer 1

Correct answer is (C) She is likely intoxicated.

Explanation: Although weight plays a factor in alcohol tolerance, each individual is different. It would take one hour for a beer to leave the bloodstream of an average individual. So, in relation to this question, "double" mixed drinks indicate more alcohol consumption than one drink (also, there are two of these), and the woman will be intoxicated within one hour if she consumes this drink.
