Best Answer

If the length of an edge is x, the volume is x3

To find the rate of change of the volume with respect to x, differentiate: d(x3)/dx = 3x2 The area of one face is x2 There are six faces so the total surface area is 6x2 Therefore the rate of change of volume, 3x2 , is half of 6x2 , the surface area.
