You are hired by a state parks and recreation department to determine whether it would be
more economical to construct a walking bridge across a gorge or a walking path around it. The
path involves walking 1170 feet, taking a 90° left turn, and walking another 520 feet. The
path costs $5 per foot, and the bridge costs $11 per foot. The bridge is the preferred option
when it is within $1500 of the path's cost. Which option should you recommend? Fynlain
