A thirsty soldier out on a survival exercise is at point P on a straight track through the desert. She desperately wants to reach a waterhole at point W. She can walk at 8 km/h along the track, but only at 3 km/h through the soft sand off the track. Determine, using the steps below, how far along the track from P she should walk before setting off in a straight line for the waterhole, so that she reaches the waterhole in minimum time. A) Define suitable variables and units n = distance on track (KM) desert W ?=g in track ->change 2 2 km 3km/ n * 3 km 8km/h > 3-m T= time spent on track (n) B) Derive an equation for the quantity to be minimized, remembering that time = distance/speed. पू T= 1/8 + == M 8 T √(3-0)4 3 = C) Determine a sensible domain for the independent variable and explain why it is sensible. [0,3]. -> all the distare possible. D) Draw a sketch of the function in (B) with this domain and a suitable range for the dependent variable. (Use your T184 to help with this) 0.991

Bottled water and medical supplies are to be shipped to survivors ofan earthquake by plane. Each container of bottled water will serve 10 people and eachmedical kit will aid 6 people. Each plane can carry no more than 80,000 pounds. The bottledwater weighs 20 pounds per container and each medical kit weighs 10 pounds. Each planecan carry a total volume of supplies that does not exceed 6000 cubic feet. Each waterbottle is 1 cubic foot and each medical kit also has a volume of 1 cubic foot. Thus, the maximum value of z is 36000 and this occurs when x = 0and y = 6000.In practical terms, this means that the maximum number of earthquake survivors whocan be helped with each plane shipment is 36000. This can be accomplished bysending 6000 medical kits.A) TrueB) False

(b) Pak Majid sells three grades of eggs A, B and C. The total price of a grade A egg and a grade B egg is three times the price of a grade C egg. Pak Majid sells 80 grade A eggs, 95 grade B eggs and 60 grade C eggs to Pak Abu. Pak Majid also sells 55 grade A, 70 grade B eggs and 90 grade C eggs to Pak Hamid. Pak Abu and Pak Hamid pay RM160.50 and RM138 respectively to Pak Majid. If x, y and z represent the price of a grade A egg, a grade B egg and a grade C egg respectively, solve for the values x, y and z by using inverse matrix method.
