An oil refinery is located on the north bank of a straight river that is 2 km wide. a pipeline is to be constructed from the refinery to storage tanks located on the south bank of the river 4 km east of the refinery. the cost of laying pipe is $200,000/km over land to a point p on the north bank and $400,000/km under the river to the tanks. to minimize the cost of the pipeline, how far from the refinery should p be located? (round your answer to two decimal places.)

You drop a rubber ball off the roof of a 50 meter high building onto a paved parking lot. it bounces back up with every bounce, but not quite all the way back up to you. after the first bounce it bounces back only 80 percent of the distance it was dropped from. the pattern continues, meaning after every bounce it comes up to just 80 percent of the previous maximum height. so if before the first bounce the height is 50 meters, what height does the ball reach after the fifth bounce? round your answer to one decimal place and chose the correct response from the choices below:
