The container is 15 feet long

Step-by-step explanation:

a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}

8^{2} +b^{2} =17^{2}

64+b^{2} =289

64-64+b^{2} =289-64

b^{2} =225

\sqrt{225} =15

b=15 feet

17 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Use pythagorean theorem:

{a}^{2} + {b}^{2} = {c}^{2}

The rectangular storage unit is split into 2 right triangles since it is 17 feet diagonally. So, 17 feet is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

{8}^{2}  +  {x}^{2}  ={17}^{2}

Once you solve everything you will find that x^2 = 225, so x = 15 ft. That is the length of the storage unit.

Cost of 1 gallon=24.50/7=3.5

Cost of 15 gallons=15*3.5=52.5

Cost of 15 gallons will be $52.5

The wood before starting =12 feet

Left wood=6 feet

Wood used till now=12-6=6 feet

Picture frame built till now= 6/(3/4)

=8 pieces

Therefore, till now 8 pieces have been made.
