The squares that are to be cut out must have dimensions of 4/3in x 4/3in to maximize the volume of the box.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this problem we must first draw a diagram that will represent the situation. (Diagram attached)
As you may see, the box should have a width of (8-2x) a length of (8-2x) and a height of x.
I determined the width and the length to be of 8-2x because notice that for each side of the cardboard I must subtract two little squares and each little square will have a side of x.
So now that we determined these dimensions, we can now find an equation for the volume of the box:
V=(8-2x)(8-2x)x
so now we can simplify it:
Once we got our equation, we can now take it's derivative so we can optimize the problem:
We can now set it equal to zero to find the value of x we need.
This can be simplified if we factored a common 4, so we get:
So we can solve it by factoring, when factoring the equation we get:
this equation yields two answers:
x=4 and x=4/3
the first answer cannot be our answer because if x was 4, that means that the length and width of the box would both be zero, which gives us the smallest possible box.
So the answer is x=4/3
If we cut squares whose sides are 4/3inx4/3in, our box will have a maximum volumne of![37.93in^{3}](/tpl/images/0185/5604/9653c.png)
