The base is 2 cm long and you want 3 pairs, that means 6 earrings.
2 cm × 6 earrings = 12 cm

12 cm of the 50 cm have been used for the base.
50 - 12 = 38 cm is left

An isosceles triangle has 2 sides that are isosceles and you want 6 earrings.
2 sides × 6 earrings = 12 sides

To figure out the length for those 12 sides with the 38 cm wire that is left, you divide.
38 cm ÷ 12 sides = approx 3.1 cm for each side

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

\$923.36  

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The compound interest formula is equal to  

A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}  

where  

A is the Final Investment Value  

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested  

r is the rate of interest  in decimal

t is Number of Time Periods  

n is the number of times interest is compounded per year

in this problem we have  

t=1\ year\\ A=\$1,000\\ r=0.08\\n=12  

substitute in the formula above  and solve for P

\$1,000=P(1+\frac{0.08}{12})^{12*1}  

P=\$1,000/(1+\frac{0.08}{12})^{12*1}=\$923.36
