Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
It rises 1 and goes 2 units to the left, which is what rise/run means
And a tip:
I can tell you're using Goggle Forms. If you hit ctrl + U, you can find the answers to the questions in the code
They are traveling at right angles to each other so we can say one is traveling north to south and the other west to east. Then we can say that there positions, y and x are:
y=150-600t x=200-800t
By using the Pythagorean Theorem we can find the distance between these two planes as a function of time:
d^2=y^2+x^2, using y and x from above
d^2=(150-600t)^2+(200-800t)^2
d^2=22500-180000t+360000t^2+40000-320000t+640000t^2
d^2=1000000t^2-500000t+62500
d=√(1000000t^2-500000t+6250)
So the rate of change is the derivative of d
dd/dt=(1/2)(2000000t-500000)/√(1000000t^2-500000t+6250)
dd/dt=(1000000t-250000)/√(1000000t^2-500000t+6250)
So the rate depends upon t and is not a constant, so for the instantaneous rate you would plug in a specific value of t...

To find how much time the controller has to change the airplanes flight path, we only need to solve for when d=0, or even d^2=0...
1000000t^2-500000t+62500=0
6250(16t^2-8t+1)=0
6250(16^2-4t-4t+1)=0
6250(4t(4t-1)-1(4t-1))=0
6250(4t-1)(4t-1)=0
6250(4t-1)^2=0
4t-1=0
4t=1
t=1/4 hr
Well technically, the controller has t<1/4 because at t=1/4 impact will occur :)
It went from 10 to -2, so you need to find the difference. The way you'd do this is: 10 - (-2). Do you know how to subtract a negative number from a positive number?
Answer:
x = 2
2x + 1 = -x +7 Add and subtract
3x = 6 divide
x = 2
