(a) Express the volume V of the box as a function of x.

V=

(b) Give the domain of V in interval notation. (Use the fact that length and volume must be positive.)

(c) Find the length L, width W, and height H of the resulting box that maximizes the volume. (Assume that W?L).

L=

W=

H=

(d) The maximum volume of the box is

Answer 1

hi! im sorry if this is wrong, im gonna try my hardest.

V= 160

L= 240

W=34
