jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

From the pythagorean theorem, we know \[\Large a^2 + b^2 = c^2\] \[\Large x^2 + y^2 = 25^2\] \[\Large y^2 = 625-x^2\] \[\Large y = \sqrt{625-x^2}\]

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

What do we get when we derive both sides of \[\Large y = \sqrt{625-x^2}\] with respect to t? Think of x as a function of t.

hi sorry i logged out last night and didn't see this!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

mmmm is it? -x/(625-x^2)^1/2

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

close, but you forgot dx/dt that is multiplied with that

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you rocked this, very nice job

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Congrats ! hope you're aware that taking help from others in an exam is against your school policiy

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

I presume you did the exam on your own and the questions you posted here are practice problems

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i did do it on my own actually, if you look at all the questions i posted it says 1/5 submissions and for exams it 1/2 submissions

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

I see, we're good as long as they are practice/homework problems :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes:) my exam is timed, i won't have time to post them and get an explanation lol
