Ben's estimate gives 7 g of nickel; the actual amount is 8.03 g.

In 1 g of the substance, there is 0.52 g of copper and 0.25 g of zinc; this gives 
0.52+0.25 = 0.77 g of the substance.

The remaining part of the substance is nickel:
1-0.77 = 0.23 g of nickel.

Using Ben's estimate, 0.2 g of nickel per gram of substance, we have
0.2(35) = 7 g of nickel in 35 g of the substance.

The actual amount is 0.23(35) = 8.03 g of nickel in 35 g of the substance.

Please help!!! I will give brainliest to the person who explains it
artcher [175]
Since we know the degrees of the circle is 360, add all of the pieces together and set equal to 360
Solving you get x = 15.
When plugging 15 back into each expression we get 90, 160, and 110.
This means the triangle sides are all different so the triangle is scalene.

Answer:

28%

Step-by-step explanation:

In the function the .72 means that each unit of time 72% of the value is retained. This means that 28% percent of the value is lost or decays because 1-0.72=0.28 or 28 percent.
