Answer:
decreasing at 390 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Airplane A's distance in miles to the airport can be written as ...
a = 30 -250t . . . . . where t is in hours
Likewise, airplane B's distance to the airport can be written as ...
b = 40 -300t
The distance (d) between the airplanes can be found using the Pythagorean theorem:
d^2 = a^2 + b^2
Differentiating with respect to time, we have ...
2d·d' = 2a·a' +2b·b'
d' = (a·a' +b·b')/d
__
To find a numerical value of this, we need to find the values of its variables at t=0.
a = 30 -250·0 = 30
a' = -250
b = 40 -300·0 = 40
b' = -300
d = √(a²+b²) = √(900+1600) = 50
Then ...
d' = (30(-250) +40(-300))/50 = -19500/50 = -390
The distance between the airplanes is decreasing at 390 miles per hour.

Answer:
$2.50
Step-by-step explanation:
The question asks for the total cost of a notebook and pen together. We don't need to find their individual costs in order to answer the question.
Sometimes we get bored solving systems of equations in the usual ways. For this question, let's try this.
The first equation has one more notebook than pens. The second equation has 4 more notebooks than pens. If we subtract 4 times the first equation from the second, we should have equal numbers of notebooks and pens.
(8n +4p) -4(3n +2p) = (16.00) -4(6.50)
-4n -4p = -10.00 . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
n + p = -10.00/-4 = 2.50 . . . . divide by the coefficient of (n+p)
The total cost for one notebook and one pen is $2.50.
__
<em>Additional comment</em>
The first equation has 1 more notebook than 2 (n+p) combinations, telling us that a notebook costs $6.50 -2(2.50) = $1.50. Then the pen is $2.50 -1.50 = $1.00.
One could solve for the costs of a notebook (n) and a pen (p) individually, then add them together to answer the question. We judge that to be more work.
