Hence, the amount of cholesterol in 6 ounces of lobster will be 128.58 milligrams

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Cholesterol in 3.5 ounces = 75 mg

Cholesterol in 6 ounces =x= ?

This can be worked out by using proportions

It can be written as:

$\frac{75}{3.5}=\frac{x}{6}\\21.43=\frac{x}{6}\\Multiplying\ both\ sides\ by\ 6\\21.43*6=x\\x=128.58\ mg$

Hence, the amount of cholesterol in 6 ounces of lobster will be 128.58 milligrams

Answer:

$\huge{\purple {r= 2\times\sqrt[3]3}}$

$\huge 2\times \sqrt [3]3 = 2.88$

Step-by-step explanation:

For solid iron sphere:
radius (r) = 2 cm (Given)

Formula for $V_{sphere}$ is given as:

$V_{sphere} =\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

$\implies V_{sphere} =\frac{4}{3}\pi (2)^3$

$\implies V_{sphere} =\frac{32}{3}\pi \:cm^3$

For cone:
r : h = 3 : 4 (Given)
Let r = 3x & h = 4x

Formula for $V_{cone}$ is given as:

$V_{cone} =\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h$

$\implies V_{cone} =\frac{1}{3}\pi (3x)^2(4x)$

$\implies V_{cone} =\frac{1}{3}\pi (36x^3)$

$\implies V_{cone} =12\pi x^3\: cm^3$

It is given that: iron sphere is melted and recasted in a solid right circular cone of same volume
$\implies V_{cone} = V_{sphere}$

$\implies 12\cancel{\pi} x^3= \frac{32}{3}\cancel{\pi}$

$\implies 12x^3= \frac{32}{3}$

$\implies x^3= \frac{32}{36}$

$\implies x^3= \frac{8}{9}$

$\implies x= \sqrt[3]{\frac{8}{3^2}}$

$\implies x={\frac{2}{ \sqrt[3]{3^2}}}$

$\because r = 3x$

$\implies r=3\times {\frac{2}{ \sqrt[3]{3^2}}}$

$\implies r=3\times 2(3)^{-\frac{2}{3}}$

$\implies r= 2\times (3)^{1-\frac{2}{3}}$

$\implies r= 2\times (3)^{\frac{1}{3}}$

$\implies \huge{\purple {r= 2\times\sqrt[3]3}}$
Assuming log on both sides, we find:

$log r = log (2\times \sqrt [3]3)$

$log r = log (2\times 3^{\frac{1}{3}})$

$log r = log 2+ log 3^{\frac{1}{3}}$

$log r = log 2+ \frac{1}{3}log 3$

$log r = 0.4600704139$

Taking antilog on both sides, we find:

$antilog(log r )= antilog(0.4600704139)$

$\implies r = 2.8844991406$

$\implies \huge \red{r = 2.88\: cm}$

$\implies 2\times \sqrt [3]3 = 2.88$

Find the value of x that makes this equation true, just write a number for your answer. Use / for writing fractions

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

1/15

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing to do is to change both denominators so that they're the same. In this case, that would be 15.

Then, whatever you do to the denominator, you must also do to the numerator.

$\frac{9}{15}$ + x = $\frac{10}{15}$

X = 1/15

The coordinates of the vertex for the quadratic function are given as follows: (100,10).

<h3>What is the vertex of a quadratic equation?</h3>

A quadratic equation is modeled by:

$y = ax^2 + bx + c$

The vertex is given by:

$(x_v, y_v)$

In which:

$x_v = -\frac{b}{2a}$

$y_v = -\frac{b^2 - 4ac}{4a}$

In this problem, the function is given as follows:

y = -x²/1000 + x/5

y = -0.001x² + 0.2x.

Hence the coefficients are a = -0.001, b = 0.2, c = 0 and the coordinates of the vertex are given as follows:

$x_v = -\frac{0.2}{2(-0.001)} = 100$

$y_v = -\frac{(0.2)^2}{4(-0.001)} = 10$
