Answer:

242.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Jeff's depth = 172.22 - 20 = 152.22

c2 = b2 + a2

c2 = 188.822 + 152.222

c = 242.536

Jason is below the sea anchor, which is below the boat.

Add the two depth measurements: 188.82 + 172.22 = 361.04

Jeff is 20 feet above Jason

361.04 - 20 = 341.04

Jeff is ~341 feet from the boat.

                  1,000,000 /30 skewers =  33,333 whole skewers,
                                                           plus one piece of one more skewer
                                                           cut into 3 equal pieces with the other
