Answer:

14ft

Step-by-step explanation:

12 yard pipe equals 36ft. Divided equally 3 times gives 3 pipes at 12ft per pipe. 2 of those are divided in half, making 4 6ft pipes. 1 of the 6ft pipes is cut into 3 2ft pipes. you now have 3 pipes at 2ft, 3 pipes at 6ft and 1 pipe at 12ft. the longest 2 pieces are 12ft and 6ft making 18ft. 2 shoetest pieces equal 4ft. 18ft minus 4ft equals 14ft.

The equation that represents the canned goods order is 24x+64y=384
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

The x-intercept is (16, 0) and y- intercept is (0, 6).

<h3>What is intercept?</h3>

The x-intercept is the point where a line crosses the x-axis, and the y-intercept is the point where a line crosses the y-axis.

Given: 24x+64y=384

For y- intercept, put x=0

Then,

24*0+64y=384

64y= 384

y= 6

Now, for x- intercept put y=0

Then,

24x+64*0=384

24x= 384

x= 15

Hence, the x-intercept is (16, 0) and y- intercept is (0, 6).

Subtract and simplify.
Anestetic [448]
(y^2-7y-5)-(-3y^2+3y-4)
=y^2-7y-5+3y^2-3y+4
=3y^2+y^2-7y-3y-5+4
=4y^2-10y-1

In short, the answer would be 4y^2-10y-1 (Option D).

Hope this helps !
