First we'll consider the floor size.
In a 10 by 12 room the longest pipe that will fit lying on the floor equals the hypotenuse of a 10 by 12 triangle:
hypotenuse² = 10² + 12²
hypotenuse² = 100 + 144
hypotenuse² = 244
hypotenuse = <span> <span> <span> 15.62 feet

Now we have to consider the third dimension (height = 8 feet).
The two sides would be 15.62 and 8
</span></span></span>hypotenuse² = 15.62² + 8²
hypotenuse² = 244 + 64 = 308
hypotenuse = 17.55
So, the longest pipe that would fit in that room would be 17.55 feet long.

No, if the pipe is 20 foot long that means the room would have be 20 foot long, tall, or wide which its not.

Answer:

The answer is 600.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because 5 percent of 800 is 40. 800+40 = 840. 15 percent of 800 is 160. 840 - 160 is 680. 10 percent of 800 is 80. 680 - 80 is 600.

If this is right an you mar me brainliest? Thank you and have a good day!
