Canoe Paddles A Lady Lives On A Island 1km From Land She Paddles Her Canoe At 3km/h And Jogs At 5km/h The Nearest Store Is?

A lady lives on a island 1km from land she paddles her canoe at 3km/h and jogs at 5km/h the nearest store is? - canoe paddles

3 Km along the coast from the tip of the island on the coast closest to other similar actions aligned. where he worked on land to get at the pharmacy to a minimum?

  1. Hello,

    Let x = distance from the coast, where the lady of the country should have their canoes. Then the rest of the trip would be the remaining 3 - x km.

    If paddling diagonal of the island on a triangle with legs of 1 km x km away from the dock the boat √ (1 + x ²).

    Distance
    ------------- = Time
    Rate

    So that the distance Canoe / Boat trot jogging distance / speed = time + travel

    This is the equation:

    Y1 = √ (1 + x ²) / 3 + (3 - x) / 5

    When it entered into the computer, finds its minimum. This occurs when x = .75 y = 867

    So, if you his boat along the coast of 75 km and ran the rest of 2.25 kilometers, would need a total of 867 hours.

    Hope this helps! :-)

  2. It takes 20 minutes to 1 km and 12 min Line 1-km run
    a total of 56 minutes to the right
    So, if angles to run his boat in an area, 1 km from the Bank needs to his 40 minutes on the platform and another 12 minutes
    As min at 52nd instead of 56 minutes if it directly

  3. That is the point x km from the coast of the island closest to you.

    Answer: 0.6 kilometers from the top of the nearest coast of the island served as a framework.

    With the principle of light refraction, that light always travels to reach the destination in the shortest possible time,
    sin i / sin r = 5 / 3
    => [X / √ (1 + x ^ 2)] / sin 90 ° = 3 / 5
    = 5 x = 3 √ (1 + x ^ 2)
    => 25x ^ 2 = 9 (1 + x ^ 2)
    => 16x ^ 2 = 9
    => X = 3 / 5 = 0.6 kilometers

  4. Canadians ask you now, ask questions!

  5. Suppose the Earth at a distance x from the nearest point on the island, paddling distance sqrt (x ^ 2 +1) (Pythagoras) and ran the track is 3-x.

    Sun Time = distance / speed = sqrt (x ^ 2 +1) / 3 + (3-x) / 5

    We need to find the smallest value, and differentiate, so that is equal to 0.

    So x / (3 * sqrt (x ^ 2 +1)) -1 / 5 = 0

    Add 1 / 5 of each side and location of the lot:

    x ^ 2 / x ^ 2 +1 = 9 / 25
    ..... Algebra over
    x ^ 2 = 9 x ^ 2 / 25 + 9 / 25
    16x ^ 2 / 25 = 9 / 25
    16x ^ 2 = 9
    x ^ 2 = 9 / 16
    So x = 3 / 4

    You should land 3 / 4 of a km from the nearest point on the coast of the island.

  6. The amount of distance canoe sqrt (x ^ 2 +1)
    The distance is 3-x

    The total time for a visit to the shop
    T = sqrt (x ^ 2 +1) / 3 + (3-x) / 5
    Now the derivative equal to 0 and solve for X.

    1 / 3 (sqrt (x ^ 2 +1)) - 1 / 5 = 0
    to land x = 4 / 3 km along the beach.
    Plug in your equation of time T and total loan.
