Step 1
The total surface area of the box is 1200 cm2
Let the length of the base is x cm and the height is h cm
Given that the base is the square base.
Then, TSA is, 1200 cm2 = x2 +4xh
Solve the equation for h
1200 x24xh
1200-x2
h=
4x
Step 2
The volume of the box is given by, V(x)=x(x)(h)
1200-12
Substitute h
in V(x) x(x)(h)
4x
1200-x2
V(x)x(x
4x
1200x-x
V (x)
