The volume of a cube is increasing at a constant rate. Prove that the increase in surface area varies inversely as the length of the edge of the cube.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To prove that the increase in surface area of a cube varies inversely as the length of the edge of the cube when the volume is increasing at a constant rate, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the variables Let the length of the edge of the cube be denoted as \( a \). The volume \( V \) of the cube can be expressed as: \[ V = a^3 \] ...
