According to the symptoms presented, the blood-borne disease that the employee exposed to potentially infectious bodily fluid could have is HIV.

Explanation:

HIV infection is a disease that can be transmitted by contact with blood or body fluids of a sick person, being a biological risk for health personnel.

Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome is the result of HIV infection.This virus produces a state of immunosuppression that leads to symptoms such as weight loss, low-grade fever, night sweats, increased susceptibility to infections such as pneumonia, and digestive disorders such as chronic diarrhea.

Depending on the symptoms, the employee may have acquired HIV infection.

The other options are not correct because:

    Acute hepatitis B or C virus infections cause abdominal pain, high fever and acute weight loss, but do not increase susceptibility to pneumonia or gastrointestinal disorders.

x = -6.5

explanation:

with this editor, you should be careful to put what you mean. 5/(2x - 7) = 3/(4x +14) is the way i will interpret it. cross multiply

5*(4x + 14) = 3*(2x - 7)       remove the brackets

20x + 70 = 6x - 21             add 21 to both sides

20x+ 70+21= 6x                 combine

20x + 91 = 6x                     subtract 20x

20x-20x+91=6x-20x           combine

91 = - 14x

x = - 91/14

x = - 6.5
