To simplify that expression you'll join like terms.
8x + 4 - 5
8x - 1
2+12a. When adding, you're only collecting "like terms".
Call the number : x
(1/3)x + 5 = x-6
=> (1/3)x + 5 - (x-6) = 0
=> (1/3)x + 5 - x + 6 = 0
Group (1/3)x with -x, 5 with 6
=> [(1/3)x - x] + (5+6) = 0
=> (-2/3)x + 11 = 0
=> (-2/3)x = -11
=> x = -11 : (-2/3) = 33/2.
Recheck : 1/3 x 33/2 + 5 = 33/6 + 5 = 63/6 = 21/2
33/2 - 21/2 = 12/2 = 6 (21/2 is 6 less than 33/2, satisfied.)
The distance is increasing at a rate that is the speed of the plane multiplied by the cosine of the angle between its flight path and the direct line to the radar station. That cosine is 4/√(3²+4²) = 4/5, so the distance is increasing at
440 mi/h × 4/5 = 352 mi/h
