A and B …

A pipeline for transporting oil will connect two points
A and B that are 3 miles apart (as the crow
flies) and 20 questions remaining
on opposite banks of a straight river one mile wide.
Part of the pipeline will run under water from A to a
point C on the opposite bank, and then above ground from
C to B. If the cost per mile of running the
pipeline under water is four times the cost per mile of running it
above ground, find the location of C that
will minimize
the cost (ignore the slope of the river bed).
