An open box is to be made from a flat piece of material 19 inches long and 3 inches wide by cutting equal squares of length xxfr

om the corners and folding up the sides. Write the volume VVof the box as a function of xx. Leave it as a product of factors, do not multiply out the factors.

Answer:

V=x(19-2x)(3-2x)

Step-by-step explanation:

The flat piece of material is 19Inches Long and 3 Inches Wide.

If we cut a square if length x from each corner:

Length if the Box=19-x-x=19-2x

Width if the Box=3-x-x=3-2x

The flap that will be folded up will be the height.

Therefore, Height of the Box= x inches.

Volume of a cuboid=lwh

Therefore the volume of the box will be:

V=x(19-2x)(3-2x)

Puritans believed that people (children in particular) were inherently bad (sinners) and had to learn to behave. Salvation lay in learning to check one's natural instincts and behave as an adult.

The Lagrangian

$L(x,y,z,\lambda)=x^2+y^2+z^2+\lambda(x^4+y^4+z^4-13)$

has critical points where the first derivatives vanish:

$L_x=2x+4\lambda x^3=2x(1+2\lambda x^2)=0\implies x=0\text{ or }x^2=-\dfrac1{2\lambda}$

$L_y=2y+4\lambda y^3=2y(1+2\lambda y^2)=0\implies y=0\text{ or }y^2=-\dfrac1{2\lambda}$

$L_z=2z+4\lambda z^3=2z(1+2\lambda z^2)=0\implies z=0\text{ or }z^2=-\dfrac1{2\lambda}$

$L_\lambda=x^4+y^4+z^4-13=0$

We can't have $x=y=z=0$ , since that contradicts the last condition.

(0 critical points)

If two of them are zero, then the remaining variable has two possible values of $\pm\sqrt[4]{13}$ . For example, if $y=z=0$ , then $x^4=13\implies x=\pm\sqrt[4]{13}$ .

(6 critical points; 2 for each non-zero variable)

If only one of them is zero, then the squares of the remaining variables are equal and we would find $\lambda=-\frac1{\sqrt{26}}$ (taking the negative root because $x^2,y^2,z^2$ must be non-negative), and we can immediately find the critical points from there. For example, if $z=0$ , then $x^4+y^4=13$ . If both $x,y$ are non-zero, then $x^2=y^2=-\frac1{2\lambda}$ , and

$xL_x+yL_y=2(x^2+y^2)+52\lambda=-\dfrac2\lambda+52\lambda=0\implies\lambda=\pm\dfrac1{\sqrt{26}}$

$\implies x^2=\sqrt{\dfrac{13}2}\implies x=\pm\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2}$

and for either choice of $x$ , we can independently choose from $y=\pm\sqrt[4]{\frac{13}2}$ .

(12 critical points; 3 ways of picking one variable to be zero, and 4 choices of sign for the remaining two variables)

If none of the variables are zero, then $x^2=y^2=z^2=-\frac1{2\lambda}$ . We have

$xL_x+yL_y+zL_z=2(x^2+y^2+z^2)+52\lambda=-\dfrac3\lambda+52\lambda=0\implies\lambda=\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{39}}{26}$

$\implies x^2=\sqrt{\dfrac{13}3}\implies x=\pm\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}3}$

and similary $y,z$ have the same solutions whose signs can be picked independently of one another.

(8 critical points)

Now evaluate $f$ at each critical point; you should end up with a maximum value of $\sqrt{39}$ and a minimum value of $\sqrt{13}$ (both occurring at various critical points).

Here's a comprehensive list of all the critical points we found:

$(\sqrt[4]{13},0,0)$

$(-\sqrt[4]{13},0,0)$

$(0,\sqrt[4]{13},0)$

$(0,-\sqrt[4]{13},0)$

$(0,0,\sqrt[4]{13})$

$(0,0,-\sqrt[4]{13})$

$\left(\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},0\right)$

$\left(\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},0\right)$

$\left(-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},0\right)$

$\left(-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},0\right)$

$\left(\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},0,\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2}\right)$

$\left(\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},0,-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2}\right)$

$\left(-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},0,\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2}\right)$

$\left(-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},0,-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2}\right)$

$\left(0,\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2}\right)$

$\left(0,\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2}\right)$

$\left(0,-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2}\right)$

$\left(0,-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2},-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}2}\right)$

$\left(\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}3},\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}3},\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}3}\right)$

$\left(\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}3},\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}3},-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}3}\right)$

$\left(\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}3},-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}3},\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}3}\right)$

$\left(-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}3},\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}3},\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}3}\right)$

$\left(\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}3},-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}3},-\sqrt[4]{\dfrac{13}3}\right)$
