Problem 7, continued (still with f(x) = x/²). (c) A particle is moving on the graph of y = f(x). Its position is described by (x, y), where a and y are both functions of time t. At one instant, you observe that x = 2 and = 5. At dt what rate is the distance between the particle and point (2, 0) changing at this instant? dx
