An engineer is hired to construct an earthen debris dam. The low point of the cross section where the 8.5 ft wide dam will be located is denoted at h = 0, with all vertical ground elevations measured above the zero datum. Compacted soil will be placed above the ground surface elevations to a depth 4.6 ft above the low point. If the cost of obtaining the soil and placement at the site is 300 per cubic yard, what is the project cost? x = distance from the west end of the cross section. Apply the trapezoidal rule.
