A box (with no top) is to be constructed from a piece of cardboard of sides a and b by cutting out squares of length h from the

corners and folding up the sides. find the value of h that maximizes the volume of the box if a = 8 and b = 9.

<span>The volume of the box is h(8-2h)(9-2h). Differentiating this gives dV/dh = 12h^2-68h+72. The derivative is zero when h = (17+sqrt(73))/6 or (17-sqrt(73))/6. The second derivative is positive for the first value, so this gives a minimum volume. The second derivative is negative for the second value, so this gives the maximum volume. So the value of h that maximizes the volume of the box is (17-sqrt(73))/6, which is approximately 1.41.</span>

Option A:

\left(x^{4}\right)\left(3 x^{3}-2\right)\left(4 x^{2}+5 x\right)=12 x^{9} +15 x^{8} -  8 x^{6}-10 x^{5}

Solution:

Given expression \left(x^{4}\right)\left(3 x^{3}-2\right)\left(4 x^{2}+5 x\right).

To find the product of the above expression:

\left(x^{4}\right)\left(3 x^{3}-2\right)\left(4 x^{2}+5 x\right)

First multiply first two factors with each term.

           =(x^{4} \times 3 x^{3}- x^{4} \times 2 ) \left(4 x^{2}+5 x\right)

Using exponent rule: a^m \cdot a^n=a^{m+n}

            =(3 x^{7}- 2x^{4} ) \left(4 x^{2}+5 x\right)

Now multiply these two factors with each term.

            =3 x^{7} (4 x^{2}+5 x)- 2x^{4} \left(4 x^{2}+5 x\right)

            =(4 x^{2} \times 3 x^{7} +5 x \times 3 x^{7} )-  \left(4 x^{2} \times 2x^{4}+5 x \times 2x^{4}\right)

Using exponent rule: a^m \cdot a^n=a^{m+n}

            =(12 x^{9} +15 x^{8} )-  (8 x^{6}+10 x^{5})

           =12 x^{9} +15 x^{8} -  8 x^{6}-10 x^{5}

\left(x^{4}\right)\left(3 x^{3}-2\right)\left(4 x^{2}+5 x\right)=12 x^{9} +15 x^{8} -  8 x^{6}-10 x^{5}

Hence option A is the correct answer.
