Each fier station hose at the la salle fier station is 25 yards long. The station needs enough fier hoses to reach from any fier hoses to reach from any fier hydrant to the farthest house wich could be up to 230 feet away. What is the minimum number of hoses that the la salle fier station should have.

4

Step-by-step explanation:

minimum number of hoses needed = farthest length / length of a hose

convert the length of a hose to feet

1 yards = 3 feet

25 x 3 = 75 feet

230 / 75 = 3.1

4 hoses would be needed

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

in the given figure, two triangles are inscribed in a circle where ∠bae ≅ ∠dae which makes the side be and de equal so we can write it as:

3x - 24 = x + 10

solving this equation for x to get:

3x - x = 10 + 24

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

therefore, the value of x = 17.
