The edge of a variable cube is increasing at the rate of 3 cm/s. How fast is the volume of the cube increasing when the edge is 10 cm long?
- A. 300 cm³/s
- B. 600 cm³/s
- C. 1200 cm³/s
- D. 900 cm³/s
Answer: D) 900 cm³/s
Explanation: Volume V = x³. dV/dt = 3x²(dx/dt). Given dx/dt = 3 and x = 10. dV/dt = 3(10²)(3) = 900 cm³/s.
