Chapter 10.3, Problem 2P
A new mall is to be built to serve the towns of Sunnyvale and Gloomington, whose centers are 6 miles apart. The developers want to locate the mall not more than 3 miles from the center of Sunnyvale and also not more than 5 miles from the center of Gloomington. Draw a simple map showing Sunnyvale, Gloomington, and all potential locations for the new mall, based on the given information. Be sure to show the scale of your map. Explain how you determined the possible locations for the mall.
