Alex wants to design a beach cabana tent with a rectangular box shape. The
tent will have two square sides, a top, and a back side of canvas (as shown in the figure).
Considering that there is only 54 square feet of canvas available for each tent, find the
dimensions of the tent for which the volume inside is maximized assuming all the canvas
is used.

You have decided to build a fish tank to keep piranhas. The rectangular base and four
sides will be made of shatterproof glass costing R800 per square metre. The top will remain open.
Use the method of Lagrange multipliers to calculate the maximum cost of a tank of volume 0.5 m³.
Find a rectangular piece of paper, cardboard, poster-board, etc. to create a box. Measure the sides of your
paper and record them below (if you are using a normal size piece of paper its dimensions are 8.5 inches by
11 inches). You will now have to determine the length, width, and height to make an open-top box with the
maximum volume possible. To do this you will have to cut the corners of the paper to fold up (but don't do
this yet). Assume the height of the box will be x, which means you will need to subtract x from both sides of
the width and length. Use these three dimensions to create a volume equation which you can derive like we
did yesterday to find the optimal value for x leading to the maximum dimensions for your box. All of your
work and the box you create should be submitted below.
