Answer:
The lifeguard should run across the shore a distance of 48.074 m before jumpng into the water in order to minimize the time to reach the child.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a problem of optimization.
We have to minimize the time it takes for the lifeguard to reach the child.
The time can be calculated by dividing the distance by the speed for each section.
The distance in the shore and in the water depends on when the lifeguard gets in the water. We use the variable x to model this, as seen in the picture attached.
Then, the distance in the shore is d_b=x and the distance swimming can be calculated using the Pithagorean theorem:

Then, the time (speed divided by distance) is:

To optimize this function we have to derive and equal to zero:

The last one is the only one that makes sense according to the standard position function. -16t^2 is the pull of gravity on an object in free fall, and the height is 120 feet above the ground. Hopefully that's what you need since there's no graph we can refer to
The answer is 6⁴.
Exponent is the number of times the factor is being multiplied. For example:
x * x = x²
x * x * x = x³
x * x * x * x = x⁴
....
So:
6 * 6 * 6 *6 = 6⁴
