Most states expect to run out of space for their garbage soon. In New York, solid garbage is packed into pyramid-shaped dumps with square bases. (The largest such dump is on Staten Island.) A small community has a dump with a base length of 100 yards. One yard vertically above the base, the length of the side parallel to the base is 99 yards; the dump can be built up to a vertical height of 20 yards. (The top of the pyramid is never reached.) If 65 cubic yards of garbage arrive at the dump every day, how long will it be before the dump is full?
