Answer:

Rate of change of the area of the rectangle at that instant = 7 cm²/hr.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle = Height x Width

A = hw

The height of a rectangle is increasing at a rate of 3 centimeters per hour and the width of the rectangle is decreasing at a rate of 4 centimeters per hour.

\texttt{Rate of change of height = }\frac{dh}{dt}=3cm/hr\\\\\texttt{Rate of change of width = }\frac{dw}{dt}=-4cm/hr

Differentiating area with respect to time,

            \frac{dA}{dt}=h\frac{dw}{dt}+w\frac{dh}{dt}

We need to find rate of change of area when the height is 5 centimeters and the width is 9 centimeters.

          \frac{dA}{dt}=h\frac{dw}{dt}+w\frac{dh}{dt}\\\\\frac{dA}{dt}=5\times (-4)+9\times 3=-20+27=7cm^2/hr

Rate of change of the area of the rectangle at that instant = 7 cm²/hr.
