A typical males body surface area S in square meters is often modeled by the formula S

Question:

A typical male’s body surface area S in square meters is often modeled by the formula S = 1/60√wh, where h is the height in cm, and w the weight in kg, of the person. Find the rate of change of body surface area with respect to weight for males of constant height h = 180 cm (roughly 5′9″). Does S increase more rapidly with respect to weight at lower or higher body weights? Explain.
