Problem

The volume of a sphere is decreasing at a constant rate of 50π cm3 ⁣/s50\pi\text{ cm}^{3}\!/\text{s}. At the moment when the radius is 3 cm3\text{ cm}, what is the instantaneous rate of change of the sphere’s surface area SS? a) −50π3 cm2 ⁣/s-\dfrac{50\pi}{3}\text{ cm}^{2}\!/\text{s} b) +100π3 cm2 ⁣/s+\dfrac{100\pi}{3}\text{ cm}^{2}\!/\text{s} c) −100π3 cm2 ⁣/s-\dfrac{100\pi}{3}\text{ cm}^{2}\!/\text{s} d) −50π cm2 ⁣/s-50\pi\text{ cm}^{2}\!/\text{s}
