Answer

$\dfrac{dv}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{6}$

Work Step by Step

$\dfrac{dr}{dt}+2s\dfrac{ds}{dt}+3v^2\dfrac{dv}{dt}=0$ As we are given that ${r+s^2+v^3=12}$,$\dfrac{dr}{dt}=4$ and $\dfrac{ds}{dt}=-3$ Thus, $4+2s(-3)+3v^2\dfrac{dv}{dt}=0$ Plug $r=3$ and $s=1$ Then ${r+s^2+v^3=12}=3+1+v^3$ or, $v=2$ or, $4+2\times1(-3)+12 \dfrac{dv}{dt}=0$ and $\dfrac{dv}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{6}$
