Two cars are approaching an intersection. One is 4 miles south of the intersection and is moving at a constant speed of 50 miles per hour. At the same time, the other car is 5 miles east of the intersection and is moving at a constant speed of 60 miles per hour.
(a) Express the distance d between the cars as a function of time t.
HINT GIVEN: At t = 0, the cars are 4 miles south and 5 miles east of the intersection, respectively.
Sorry, but this hint does not make sense to me. I need someone to solve this question step by step explaining as you go through the problem. Okay?
