A manufacturer wants to design a rectangular box with a square base and an open top. (In other words, the base of the box is a square, but the other four sides of the box are rectangles that are not necessarily squares. The box has no top). If the box has a surface area of 192 ??2, what is the maximum possible volume of the box? (Make sure to verify that your solution is indeed a maximum instead of a minimum)
