The length of the island will be given as follows:
tan θ=opposite/adjacent
thus:
tan75.8= 3000/a1
a1=3000tan75.8
a1=11855.885 ft

also:
tan15.6=3000/a2
a2=3000tan15.6
a2=837.62 ft
Thus the length of the island will be:
11855.885-837.615
=11,018.24 ft

Solve the equation x/3-5=y for x
Annette [7]
X/3-5=y
add 5 to both sides
x/3=y+5
now multiply both sides by 3
x=3(y+5)
which means
x=3y+15
