The line \(L\) has equation \(y=c-mx\), with \(m>0\) and \(c>0\). It passes through the point \(R(a,b)\) and cuts the axes at the points \(P(p,0)\) and \(Q(0,q)\), where \(a\), \(b\), \(p\) and \(q\) are all positive. Find \(p\) and \(q\) in terms of \(a\), \(b\) and \(m\).
As \(L\) varies with \(R\) remaining fixed, show that the minimum value of the sum of the distances of \(P\) and \(Q\) from the origin is \((a^{\frac{1}{2}}+b^{\frac{1}{2}})^2\), and find in a similar form the minimum distance between \(P\) and \(Q\). (You may assume that any stationary values of these distances are minima.)
