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

Deffense [45]

Answer:

0.33362176

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the ratio of the number of possible outcomes to the number of total outcomes.

Given that a football team has a probability of 0.76 of winning when playing any of the other four teams in its conference, the probability that the team wins all its conference games

= 0.76 * 0.76 * 0.76 * 0.76

= 0.33362176

This is the probability that the teams wins the 4 matches played against the other teams in the conference.

Lim x->-5(((1)/(5)+(1)/(x))/(10+2x))=<br><br>correct answer 1/10x = -1/50<br><br>explain:

slava [35]

Given:

The limit problem is:

$lim_{x\to -5}\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{5}+\dfrac{1}{x}}{10+2x}$

To find:

The value of the given limit problem.

Solution:

We have,

$lim_{x\to -5}\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{5}+\dfrac{1}{x}}{10+2x}$

It can be written as:

$=lim_{x\to -5}\dfrac{\dfrac{x+5}{5x}}{2(5+x)}$

$=lim_{x\to -5}\dfrac{x+5}{5x}\times \dfrac{1}{2(5+x)}$

$=lim_{x\to -5}\dfrac{1}{5x\times 2}$

$=lim_{x\to -5}\dfrac{1}{10x}$

Applying limit, we get

$lim_{x\to -5}\dfrac{1}{10x}=\dfrac{1}{10(-5)}$

$lim_{x\to -5}\dfrac{1}{10x}=\dfrac{1}{-50}$

Therefore, the value of given limit problem is $-\dfrac{1}{50}$ .
