Vedclass · Answer

(A) Given that the length $x$ is decreasing at the rate of $5 	ext{ cm/min}$,we have $\frac{dx}{dt} = -5 	ext{ cm/min}$.Given that the width $y$ is increasing at the rate of $4 	ext{ cm/min}$,we have $\frac{dy}{dt} = 4 	ext{ cm/min}$.The area $A$ of a rectangle is given by $A = x 	imes y$.Differentiating both sides with respect to $t$,we get $\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{dx}{dt} \cdot y + x \cdot \frac{dy}{dt}$.Substituting the given values $x = 8 	ext{ cm}$,$y = 6 	ext{ cm}$,$\frac{dx}{dt} = -5 	ext{ cm/min}$,and $\frac{dy}{dt} = 4 	ext{ cm/min}$:$\frac{dA}{dt} = (-5)(6) + (8)(4) = -30 + 32 = 2 	ext{ cm}^2/	ext{min}$.Thus,the area of the rectangle is increasing at the rate of $2 	ext{ cm}^2/	ext{min}$.

The length $x$ of a rectangle is decreasing at the rate of $5 \text{ cm/min}$ and the width $y$ is increasing at the rate of $4 \text{ cm/min}$. When $x = 8 \text{ cm}$ and $y = 6 \text{ cm}$,find the rate of change of the area of the rectangle.
