Set up but do not solve this problem. Draw the shape, label the changing picture with variables and constants, label the snapshot instant picture with constants. Find an equations that relates the variables in the changing picture. A balloon is at a height of 30 meters, and is rising at the constant rate of 5 m/sec. A bicyclist passes beneath it, traveling in a straight line at the constant speed of 10 m/sec. How fast is the distance between the bicyclist and the balloon increasing 2 seconds later?
