Answer:
Rectangle.
Step-by-step explanation:
The 2 dimensional section would be a rectangle.
Multiply then simplify, that's doing the same work twice...anyway
x^3+x^2y+xy^2-x^2y-xy^2-y^3
x^3-y^3 which if factored is:
(x-y)(x^2+xy+y^2) which is what you started with :)
50 is the answer to this question
Let the side length of the square be x, then A = x^2
but diagonal (z) = sqrt(2x^2)
z^2 = 2x^2
x^2 = 1/2 z^2
Thus, A = 1/2 z^2
dA/dz = 1/2 (2z) = z
The rate of change is z.
When z = 4, the rate is 4.
