Area of the canvas: 96 = 2 · W² + 2 · W L,
where W is the width and L is the length of a back and a top side. Two square sides have area W².
2 W L = 96 - 2 W² /:2
W L = 48 - W²
L = ( 48 - W² ) / W.
The inside volume of the shelter:
V = L · W · W = L · W²
V = W² · ( 48 - W² ) / W ;
V = 48 W - W³
We have to find the derivative:
V ` = 48 - 3 W²
48 - 3 W² = 0 ( for V max. )
3 W² = 48
W² = 48 : 3
W² = 16;  W = √16;  W = 4 ft.
L = ( 48 - 16 ) / 4 = 32 / 4 = 8 ft.
Answer: The length of the shelter for which the volume inside is maximized is  8 ft.

0.985 rounded to the nearest tenth
GarryVolchara [31]
They always try to trick you with this.  Remember anything 5 or above would round up, anything 4 and under would round down.  So look for the tenth place.  that's the 9.  The number to the right is 8 which is greater than 5.  That means round up.  You can't round it to 0.1 because that takes it back down.  So you just move it over.  The answer is 1.0.
