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.

If Samantha can pay off her loan in 36 months at a 10% interest rate rather than in 48 months at a 12% interest rate, how much m
Ymorist [56]
Hi there
The simple interest formula is
I=prt
I interest changes
P amount of the loan 6000
R interest rate
T time( number of months/12 months)

The interest in 36 months at a 10%
I=6,000×0.1×(36÷12)=1,800
The interest in 48 months at a 12%
6,000×0.12×(48÷12)=2,880
she will save
2,880−1,800=1,080

Good luck!
