At a Certain Instant the Length of One Leg of a Right

Question 53

Multiple Choice

At a certain instant the length of one leg of a right triangle is 6 m and is increasing at 2 m/min while the length of the other leg is 8 m and is decreasing at 3 m/min. How fast is the area of the triangle changing at that instant?


A) decreasing at 1 At a certain instant the length of one leg of a right triangle is 6 m and is increasing at 2 m/min while the length of the other leg is 8 m and is decreasing at 3 m/min. How fast is the area of the triangle changing at that instant? A)  decreasing at 1   /min B)  decreasing at 2   /min C)  unchanging, holding steady D)  increasing at 2   /min E)  increasing at 1   /min /min
