The volume of a shipping container is 50.148 cubic feet. how many smaller boxes, each with a volume of 2.786 cubic feet, does the shipping container hold? a. 16 b. 25 c. 17 d. 18

For this case we have the following data:

If we divide the volume of the container between the volume of the boxes, we obtain the number of boxes that fit in the container. Therefore:

the shipping container holds:

Option D

11.2

step-by-step explanation:

when doing tangent the tangent of the angle is equal to the opposite side from the angle over the adjacent side to the angle.

tan43 = x / 12

move 12 over by multiplying each side by 12

12tan43 = x

x = about 11.2
