The area of a square is increasing at a rate of 24 centimeters squared per second. Find the rate of change of the side of the square when it is 4 centimeters. The rate of change of the side is Number cm/sec.

Respuesta :

Answer:

3cm/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a square is expressed as:

A = L²

Rate of change of area is expressed as:

dA/dt = dA/dL•dL/dt

Given that

dA/dt = 24cm²/s

L = 4cm

Required

dL/dt

Since dA/dl = 2L

dA/dl = 2(4)

dA/dl = 8cm

Subatitute the given values into the formula

24 = 8 dL/dt

dL/dt = 24/8

dL/dt = 3cm/s
