Math Problem Statement
A plane flying horizontally at an altitude of 2 miles and a speed of 520 mi/h passes directly over a radar station. Find the rate at which the distance from the plane to the station is increasing when it has a total distance of 5 miles away from the station. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
