Answer: the rate at which the distance between the boats is increasing is 68 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
The direction of movement of both boats forms a right angle triangle. The distance travelled due south and due east by both boats represents the legs of the triangle. Their distance apart after t hours represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.
Let x represent the length the shorter leg(south) of the right angle triangle.
Let y represent the length the longer leg(east) of the right angle triangle.
Let z represent the hypotenuse.
Applying Pythagoras theorem
Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²
Therefore
z² = x² + y²
To determine the rate at which the distances are changing, we would differentiate with respect to t. It becomes
2zdz/dt = 2xdx/dt + 2ydy/dt- - - -- - -1
One travels south at 32 mi/h and the other travels east at 60 mi/h. It means that
dx/dt = 32
dy/dt = 60
Distance = speed × time
Since t = 0.5 hour, then
x = 32 × 0.5 = 16 miles
y = 60 × 0.5 = 30 miles
z² = 16² + 30² = 256 + 900
z = √1156
z = 34 miles
Substituting these values into equation 1, it becomes
2 × 34 × dz/dt = (2 × 16 × 32) + 2 × 30 × 60
68dz/dt = 1024 + 3600
68dz/dt = 4624
dz/dt = 4624/68
dz/dt = 68 mph

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Slope = 2/3 Y intercept +3
Step-by-step explanation:
Plot the y-intercept (0,+3) in the xy axis. Remember, this point always lies on the vertical axis y.
Starting from the y-intercept, find another point using the slope. Slope contains the direction how you go from one point to another.
The numerator tells you how much steps to go up or down (rise) while the denominator tells you how many units to move left or right (run).
Connect the two points generated by the y-intercept and the slope using a straight edge (ruler) to reveal the graph of the line.
