This is actually a trick question if you were to take this question head on. Say for instance you are cutting all the pieces from the same sheet of metal, the equation would NOT be 8 times 5 equals 40 minutes, but rather 7 times 5 equals 35 minutes. this is because on the 7th cut, it takes that from 6 sheets of metal to 8 because you get 2 from that cut. Take for instence, a Hersheys candy bar. It is 3 bars thick, but it only takes 2 breaks to sever the 3 strips. So, that being said, sam will make 7 cuts and those 7 cuts will make a times of 35 minutes.

T = 5 a
i = 4% aa
j = 1200
c = ...
j = cit/100
c = 100j / it
c = 100*1200 / 4*5
c = 120000 / 20
c = 12000/2
c = 6000

montante

M = c+j
M = 6000+1200
M = 7200
