A point is in motion along a hyperbola y = 10/x so that its abscissa x increases uniformly at a rate of 1 unit per second. Then, the rate of change of its ordinate, when the point passes through (5, 2):
decreases at the rate of 1/2 unit per second
increases at the rate of 1/2 unit per second
decreases at the rate of 2/5 unit per second
increases at the rate of 2/5 unit per second
