I've been watching so many videos trying to understand this concept and this specific question and your video finally gave me the "Aha!" moment I was looking for. On top of that, you explained it very well under 5 minutes! Thank you so much
One of the things that makes this problem tricky is that his distance from the pole, 40 ft, never mattered. I solved this problem correctly but kept trying to go back and incorporate the 40 ft some how lol.
I was wondering that myself. Let's say we want to know the speed when he's 10 feet away; you would get the same answer? That has to be wrong because the angle's different.
Nope if he’s walking away from a point then it’s +value while if he’s walking toward a point in other word he’s getting closer to a point so it’s a -value
2:32 Everything after this point blew my mind it all makes sense now
This exact problem was on my calculus test and I didn’t know what to do so I just skipped it, thanks for your help for the future though 😂

Thanks for making these videos! I've been binge watching you getting ready for finals
Wow this question is pretty similar with what I have before in test and keep on wondering how to do this
Thank you so much!
Waiting for your optimization content. Thank you, bprp.
question: where is x=40 to be used?

Hi sir, how did you get 6dx/dt?
Thank you for your videos 🙏
x=40ft not used ?

why is the answer dy/dt+dx/dt
Isn’t it -5 since His walking away from the pole?

The question that makes me realize that I will never get into MIT.

I just found dy/dt and i though that's the answer but now i understand why dx/dt+dy/dt is answer.
bro you only answered part A and called it done.
