7. An open box is to be made from a square piece of material, 24 cm on a side, by
cutting equal squares from the corners and turning up the sides as shown (Fig.1.17).
Express the volume V of the box as a function of x.

INITIAL LENGTH OF SQUARE IS 24
AFTER CUTTING OTS CORNER BY X
THN
its lenght become 24-2x
Breath became 24-2x
height became x
volume of cuboid = function of box
v=(24-2x)(24-2x)(x)
=(24-2x)²x
=(576+4x²-96x)x
=576x-96x+4x²
V of the box is in the function of x

Step-by-step explanation:
An open box is to be made from a square piece of material, 24 cm on a side, by cutting equal squares from the corners and turning up the sides.
Size of square piece = 24 * 24 cm²
Let say Size of csquare cut from corner = x * x cm²
Then sides of Open box would be be
24 - 2x , 24 - 2x & 2x
Volume of the open box = (24-2x)(24-2x)2x
= 2x(24 - 2x)²
= 2x * 2²(12 - x)²
= 8x * (x² + 144 - 24x)
= 8x³ - 192x + 1152x
V = 8x³ - 192x² + 1152x
dV/dx = 24x² - 384x + 1152
dV/dx = 0
24x² - 384x + 1152 = 0
x² - 16x + 48 = 0
x² - 12x - 4x + 48 = 0
x(x-12) -4(x-12) = 0
(x - 4)(x-12) = 0
x = 12 is not possible as then no box will be left
x = 4 will give max volume
