Let the square base has length b and the height of the box be h . It is given that 4b+h=12\\ h=4(3-b)

The volume of the box is V=b^2h=4b^2(3-b).

For maximum volume \frac{dV}{db} =0\\ \frac{d(4b^2(3-b))}{db} =0\\ 6b-3b^2=0\\ b=2

The maximum possible volume occurs when b=3 in.

V_{max} =4(2)^2(3-2) =16 in^3

What is the equation of the line that has a slope of 4 and passes through then point (3,-10)?
Fynjy0 [20]
<h3>♫ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ~<u>Hello There</u>!~ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ♫</h3>

➷ Substitute the x and y values into the equation:

y = mx + c

'm' is the slope, which we know is 4

-10 = 4(3) + c

- 10 = 12 + c

c = -22

The equation is y = 4x -22
