c. A buggy is on the desert at a point A located 40 km from a point B,

which lies on a long, straight road as shown in FIGURE Q1. The driver
can travel at 45 km/h on the desert and 75 km/h on the road. The
driver will win a prize if she arrives at the finish line at point D, 50 km
from B, in 84 min or less. What route should she travel to minimize the
time of travel? Does she win the prize?
