I really do not understand how to do these problems, so many weird math tricks and rules and I am getting caught up on at least a dozen in this problem. Anyways I am supposed to find:
Each side of a square is increasing at a rate of $6 \text{ cm/s}$. At what rate is the area of the square increasing when the area of the square is $16 \text{ cm}^2$?
I think what I need to do is set it equal to 16 or 4, but I am not sure which so the problem will look like $4=s(36)$ but I am not sure what to do with that.
