Answer:
230.9 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The side ratios of a 30°-60°-90° triangle are 1 : √3 : 2
In ∆ABC, BC = AB/√3 ≈ 115.47 ft
In ∆ABD, BD = AB√3 ≈ 346.41 ft
Then the length CD is ...
346.41 ft -115.47 ft = 230.94 ft
The distance CD is about 230.9 ft.
He should buy 4 boxes
25 divided by 8 is 3.125, but you want to have enough so the least amount you can buy is 4.
y = 3x+4 and y = x-2
3x+4 = x-2
2x+4 = -2
2x = -6
x = -3
y = -3 -2 = -5
