Answer

$ \displaystyle \frac{dA}{dr}=8\pi r$

Work Step by Step

SUMMARY (rules in differential notation): 1. The Power Rule$:\ \ \ \displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}[x^{n}]=n\cdot x^{n-1 } $ 2. Sum Rule: $\displaystyle \ \ \ \frac{d}{dx}[f\pm g](x)=\frac{d}{dx}[f(x)]\pm\frac{d}{dx}[g(x)] $ 3. Constant Multiple Rule:$\ \ \displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}[cf(x)]=c\cdot\frac{d}{dx}[f(x)] $ 4. Constant times x:$\ \ \ \displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}(cx)=c $ 5. Constant:$\displaystyle \ \ \ \ \ \frac{d}{dx}(c)=0 $ ------------------ $ \displaystyle \frac{dA}{dr}= \frac{d}{dr}[4\pi r^{2}]$= $\ \ \ $...($ 3, \pi$ is a constant too) $=4\displaystyle \pi\cdot\frac{d}{dr}[r^{2}]$= $\ \ \ $...($1$) $=4\pi(2r)$ $ \displaystyle \frac{dA}{dr}=8\pi r$
