There are 10 square meters of material and a person wants to construct a box. Find the maximum volume of the box. Assume that all of the material is used in the construction of the box.
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.
An open-top rectangular box is constructed from a 10-in.-by-16-in. piece of cardboard by cutting squares of equal side length from the corners and folding up the sides. Find analytically the dimensions of the box of largest volume and the maximum volume. Support your answers graphically.
