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.

Drupady [299]
F(5) = - 2f(4) + 1
f(4) = -2f(3) + 1
f(3) = -2f(2) + 1
f(2) = -2f(1) + 1
Therefore:
 f(2) = -2(3) + 1 = -5
f(3) = -2(-5) + 1 = 11
f(4) = -2(11) + 1 = -21
Therefore f(5) = -2(-21) + 1 = 43

Answer: His temperature is 99°F

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's state what we know:

Steve's temperature was initially 102°F

Later it dropped 3°F lower

Since his temperature decreased we need to subtract 3 from 102 to see what his temperature is now

102-3=99

Answer:

681ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by finding the area of the whole thing with the missing triangle:

33 x 22 = 726

Then find the area of the triangle. You can do this by first finding out the side lengths of the triangle:

33 - 24 = 9 and 22 - 12 = 10

Then multiply both sides and divide by two because it is a triangle:

10 x 9 = 90       90/2 = 45

Then subtract the area of the triangle from the rectangle:

726 - 45 = 681
