Chapter 6, Problem 6.1.1.201

(choose chapter or problem)

Capture the Flag Two opposing players in Capture the Flag are 100 ft apart. On a signal, they run to capture a flag that is on the ground midway between them. The faster runner, however, hesitates for 0.1 sec. The following parametric equations model the race to the flag:

\(\begin{array}{ll}x_{1}=10(t-0.1), & y_{1}=3 \\x_{2}=100-9 t, & y_{2}=3\end{array}\)

(a) Simulate the game in a [0, 100] by [-1, 10]  viewing window with t starting at 0. Graph simultaneously.

(b) Who captures the flag and by how many feet?
