Transcribed Image Text:
In the article "Do Dogs Know Calculus?" the author Timothy Pennings explained how he noticed that when he threw a ball
diagonally into Lake Michigan along a straight shoreline, his dog Elvis seemed to pick the optimal point in which to enter
the water so as to minimize his time to reach the ball, as in the given figure.

Suppose Tim timed the dog and found Elvis could run at 6.4 m/s on the sand and swim at 0.91 m/s. If Tim stood at
point A and threw the ball to a point B in the water, which was a perpendicular distance 10 m from point C on the shore,
where C is a distance 15 m from where he stood, at what distance x from point C did Elvis enter the water if the dog
effectively minimized his time to reach the ball? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
