An offshore oil well is located in the ocean at a point W, which is 5km from the closest shore- point A( ie. the perpendicular distance from W to A) on a straight shoreline. The oil is to be piped to a shore point B that is 8km from A by piping it on a straight line under water from W to some shore point P between A and B and then on to B through a pipe along the shoreline. If the cost of laying pipe is $100000/km under water and $75000/km over land. What is the minimum cost?
