Solved: Two oceanfront homes are located 8 miles apart on
Chapter 6, Problem 120(choose chapter or problem)
Two oceanfront homes are located 8 miles apart on a straight stretch of beach, each a distance of 1 mile from a paved path that parallels the ocean. Sally can jog 8 miles per hour on the paved path, but only 3 miles per hour in the sand on the beach. Because a river flows directly between the two houses, it is necessary to jog in the sand to the road, continue on the path, and then jog directly back in the sand to get from one house to the other. See the illustration. The time T to get from one house to the other as a function of the angle u shown in the illustration is T1u2 = 1 + 2 3 sin u - 1 4 tan u 0 6 u 6 p 2
