Description
Problem 10
oThe total time T (in hours) of the trip as a function of the distance x (in miles). Make sure you show all your work to come up with this equation, and explain each step and what it represents.
oThe domain of the function. Explain why this domain makes sense, and show work as needed.
oGraph the function using the graphing utility on Desmos.com. Take a screenshot and make sure it is included in your document. The graph should be focused over the domain of the function.
oFind the value of x that minimizes T. Desmos.com will note this ordered pair for you automatically. If it does not, then you can click various points of the graph and it will display the ordered pair.
oWhat does the ordered pair of the minimum for T represent in our situation? I.E. what does the value of x tell us, and what does the value of T tell us? Write a brief paragraph interpreting these values.
Reflection on the project as a whole
oProcess for each problem
§Did your idea for solving this work?
§Did you have to get help or try different methods?
§Was this problem easy? Hard?
§Share anything else you have to say about the problems
oWorking with a partner
§Were you and your partner able to communicate well? (YES WE COMMUNICATED THROUGH EMAIL)
§What technology did you use to meet and communicate? (EMAIL)
§How did you split up work? Did that work well? (PARTNER DID NUMBER 6 AND I DID NUMBER 10)

Explanation & Answer
Here is the final document, there is one group question I couldnt answer because I didnt do the whole project so I highlighted it for you
Problem 10
The total time T (in hours) of the trip as a function of the distance x (in miles). Make sure you
show all your work to come up with this equation and explain each step and what it
represents.
Finding the hypotenuse (shortest distance from the Boat to Q)
22 + 𝑥 2 = 𝑐 2
𝑐 = √4 + 𝑥 2
12 + (𝑥 − 3)2 = 𝑐 2
𝑐 = √1 + (4 − 3)2
Totals
𝑐 = √4 + 𝑥 2 total water
𝑐 = √1 + (4 − 3)2 total beach
We want per hour, so we must divide each equation by the x mil...
