Question 855399: You and your friend leave your house at the same time. You drive due east at a speed of 35 miles per hour, and your friend travels due south at a speed of 25 miles per hour. After 30 minutes, how fast is the distance between your cars changing? Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
