Thirteen Savage Beasts is a popular rock group that has toured all over North America. It is now beginning its Japanese tour and will be playing to a sold-out house in a major sports stadium in Osaka.
After strategically positioning 12 banks of loudspeakers, the manager for the group has found that the local government requires all cables and wires be housed in specially insulated rigid casings. (In the United States, the group simply lays the cables along the ground or across rafters, but this is unacceptable to the Japanese authorities.)
A diagram of the stage area and the 12 banks of loudspeakers with distances in meters is shown in the figure for problem 14. What is the minimum amount of
the insulated casings the group must purchase before the rock concert can proceed? (Note: Loudspeakers m ay be connected to one another or directly to the stage.)
