Answer:

0.32 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio of weight of -copper, zinc, manganese, and nickel = 177:12:7:4

let the

weight of copper = 177x

weight of zinc = 12x

weight of manganese = 7x

weight of nickel = 4x

Total weight of this alloy in terms of x =  177x + 12x+ 7x + 4x = 300x

given weight of alloy = 8 grams

thus,

weight of this alloy in terms of x =given weight of alloy

300x = 8 grams

x = 8/300 grams =

weight of zinc = 12x = 12 * 8/300 grams = 96/300 grams = 0.32 grams

A quadrilateral has its interior angles X, 47, 95, 82. Find<br>the value of x​
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

x=136

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the measure of the sum of the interior angles use the formula (n-2) times 180 where n is the number of sides.

A quadrilateral has 4 sides. (4-2) times 180. 2 times 180=360

The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360.

x+47+95+82=360

x+ 224 = 360

x= 136
