Suppose you have a total surface area of 2400 inches squared of cardboard in order to construct a box with a square base. If x represents the sidelength of the base of the box, write out a volume function to be maximized as a function of x. Assume that the box contains both a top and bottom. (PLEASE HURRY :))
V(x)=x^2(600−2x^2)
V(x)=2x^2+4x(2400/x2)
V(x)=x^2((2400−2x)/(24x))
The correct answer is not given.
V(x) = x^2 (2400-2x^2)
Let length of the box is x
width is x
height is y
Surface area of box
S=2x^2+4xy (because surface area of botton and top + 4 side area)
2400=2x^2+4xy
2(x^2+2xy)=2400
x^2+2xy=1200
2xy=1200-x^2
y=(1200 - x^2)/2x
Volume of the box
V=x^2y
=x^2((1200 - x^2)/2x) (Putting the value of y from above)
=x/2(1200-x^2)
=600x-x^3/2
Differentiating with respect to x
dV/dx=600 -3x^2/2
For critical points
dV/dx=0
600-3x^2/2=0
3x^2/2=600
x^2=400
x=20
Vmax = 600(20)-(20)^3)/2
=8000

You construct an open box from a square piece of cardboard, 24 inches on a side, by cutting out equal squares with sides of length from the corners and turning up the sides (see figure below). Write a function V, in terms of 2, that represents the volume of the box. Then use a calculator to graph V and use the graph to estimate the value of that produces a maximum volume. - - - - x - - x...

A box with a square base and open top must have a volume of 2048 c m 3 . We wish to find the dimensions of the box that minimize the amount of material used. The length of the base is x and the height is h. Since the base is a square, the surface area of just the base would be: Area = The surface area of just one side would be: Area = The surface area of all...
