A pipeline is to be built from a point on the bank of an 800m wide river to a point 3km downstream on the opposite bank. a) The building costs for the pipeline are $750,000 per km under the river and $250,000 per km over the land. By using the information on the diagram show that the cost (C) of the pipeline can be given by: C = 750000 (√y² +0.64+1) - 250000y b) Find the value of y that minimizes the cost. c) Verify that the value for y that you have found minimizes the cost. d) What is the minimum cost of building the pipeline? River B X A
