THE AIRPORT PROBLEM

BY: KELSEY KLUTTS, ABBY MERICE, RIDGE REIGLER, AND ETHAN KILLIPS

1. If option A is selected then, by using the intersection of the medians, the airport location is found.

2. The airport location is at about (13,12), which is directly between all the towns.

3. Town A is 20.4 miles away from the airport. Town B is 15.1 miles away from the airport. Town C is 16.8 miles away from the airport.

Untitled Slide

4(a). To build a new road from Town A to the airport, it would cost about $2,550,000.

Untitled Slide

4(b). To build a new road from Town B to the airport, it would cost $1,887,500.

Untitled Slide

4(c). To build a road from Town C to the airport, it would cost $2,111,250.

Untitled Slide

Option A is the best choice because the new roads are the only thing that is needed to be payed for. So, it will be less expensive to make the airport equidistant from the three towns.
