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

The circle above has a radius of 11 cm. What is the area of the circle

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

69. 14 $cm^{2}$ or 22π $cm^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a circle = 2πr

and, radius, r = 11 cm

π = 22/7

Therefore the area of a circle with radius 11cm

= 2* π * 11 or 2 * 22/7 * 11

= 22π or = 484/7

= 69. 14 $cm^{2}$

What is the simplified form of the following expression? 2√27+√12-3√3-2√12

LiRa [457]

Answer:

√3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression to be simplified is

$2 \sqrt{27}+\sqrt{12}-3\sqrt{3}-2 \sqrt{12}$

but

$2 \sqrt{27}=2\sqrt{9 \times 3}=2 \times \sqrt{9}\times \sqrt{3}=2 \times 3 \times\sqrt{3}=6 \sqrt{3}$

$\sqrt{12}=\sqrt{4\times3}= \sqrt{4}\times \sqrt{3}=2\sqrt{3}$

Since √12=2√3,this implies that,

$2\sqrt{12}=2\times2\sqrt{3}=4 \sqrt{3}$

Therefore,

$2 \sqrt{27}+\sqrt{12}-3\sqrt{3}-2 \sqrt{12}=6\sqrt{3}+2\sqrt{3}-3 \sqrt{3} -4\sqrt{3}$

$=(6+2-3-4)\sqrt{3}$

$=\sqrt{3}$

The simplified form of ,

$2 \sqrt{27}+\sqrt{12}-3\sqrt{3}-2 \sqrt{12}$ is √3
