Based on the information given, the number of milligrams that will remain after 59 hours will be 13.125 milligrams.

Since after 40 hours, 25 mg of the substance has been removed, therefore, the rate per hour will be:

= 25/40 = 0.625.

The amount that will be removed in 59 hours will be:

= 59 × 0.625 = 36.875

The number of milligrams that will remain will be:

= 50 - 36.875 = 13.125 milligrams

PLS HELP ASAP PLS
Reika [66]
Hello!

To find surface area, all you need to do is add up the areas of all the faces of the prism. Let’s start by remembering some basic area formulas:

Area of a triangle= 1/2*base*height
Area of a rectangle= length*width

First, find the area of each of the little triangles on the sides of the net. The base is 3 ft, and the height is 4 ft. So:

1/2*3*4= 6 ft

There are two triangles of the same size, so multiply that number by 2.

6*2=12

Now, find the area of the top rectangle:

3*8= 24

And the area of the bottom rectangle:

5*8= 40

Finally, add all of those numbers together:

12+24+40= 76 ft^2

That should be your answer!

Given:

-3y - 2 - 3 + 17y   (rearrange so that like terms are together)

= 17y - 3y -2 -3  (group like terms)

= (17y - 3y) + (-2 -3 )   simplify

= 14y + (-5)

= 14y -5

Solve for z<br> 3z-5+2z=25-5z
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

z=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 3z and 2z

5z-5=25-5z

Add 5z on both sides to eliminate the -5z on the RHS

10z-5=25

Add 5 on both sides to eliminate the -5 on the LHS

10z=30

Divide by 10

z=3

Hope this helps!
