Answer:

a. If c = 20 cm, then the mass of the brain is m = 5 g.

b. At c = 20 cm, the brain's mass is increasing at a rate of 15.75 g/cm.

Explanation:

From the equation

m\left(c\right) = \frac{c^3}{100}-\frac{1500}{c}

we have

a. for c = 20 cm

m\left(20\right)=\frac{20^3}{100}-\frac{1500}{20}=5,

then the mass is m(20) = 5 g.

b. In order to find the rate of change, first we derivate

\frac{dm}{dc}=\frac{3c^2}{100}+\frac{1500}{c^2}.

Evaluated at c = 20 cm, we have

\frac{dm}{dc}|_{c=20}=\frac{3\times 20^2}{100}+\frac{1500}{20^2}=15.75.

So, at c = 20 cm, the mass of the brain is increasing at a rate of 15.75 g/cm.
