    I have been watching my teacher do these for 2 classes now…and you actually showed problem solving steps..I hate my professor. She just implies that we know EVERYTHING up to this point. She never recalls anything for us, and she just skips over steps. Thanks for the vids man

    You really strip down math to the problem solving adventure it should be. Everything is less intimidating when explained in real-world terms. Thanks!

    no. both distances get longer with respect to time, so they should both be positive

    SIMPLER WAY!!!!
    - …

    SIMPLER WAY!!!!
    -Draw and realize the right triangle.
    -Add up the opposite distances (d=v*t)
    -We already know the equation and the x, y, and z values b/c of pythagorean theorem (x=100, y=240, z= 260)

    x^2 + y^2 = z^2

    Now Differentiate:
    2x(dx/dt) + 2y (dy/dt) = 2z(dz/dt)

    Plug:
    2(100)(0) + 2(240)(60) = 2(260)(dz/dt)

    And Chug:
    (0 + 28800)/ 520 = dz/dt
    dz/dt = 55.38 km/h

    Yeah, you’re probably right.

    Yes, I understand …
    Yes, I understand that they were opposite directions, but I was merely commenting on how it might be confusing to a viewer that usually denotes x and y to perpendicular axes, and might instead use a and b rather than x and y to denote that sort of thing.

  17. AureolaFE says:

    In this problem, …
    In this problem, though, X and Y aren’t referring to the axes, though, there simply opposite directions.

    I GOT THE SAME BOOK! YAY! I LOVE U MAN

  19. qwertyaznman123 says:

    You know, you …
    You know, you probably shouldn’t have said “the change in the x direction” because it doesn’t make sense on a set of axes. Technically dx/dt and dy/dt would both be on the y axis. It just sounds confusing when normally x and y are on perpendicular axes (like on a graph)
