A power unit is by the bank of a river 1500m wide.
It is required to construct a power plant on the side of the river opposite to the power unit and 3000mfrom the unit.
A cable has to be laid from the power unit to the power plant.
The cost of laying the cable under water and on the land is Rs 100 per m and Rs 10 per m respectively.
