Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
Length of flat piece of material=14 in
Width of flat piece of material=6 in
We have to find the volume of box as a function of x.
An open box is made from flat piece of material by cutting equal squares of length x from the corner and folding up the sides.
Therefore, Height of box=x in
Length of box=14-2x in
Width of box=6-2x in
We know that volume of box=
Using the formula
Volume of box=f(x)=
The answer needs the volume of the original pyramid minus the small pyramid cut off.
Volume of pyramid = (area of base x height)/3
(12 x 6 x 14)/3 - (4 x 10 x 6)/3 = 256 m^3
The diagram is completely wrong so this problem is actually impossible to solve!
If you slice horizontally across a rectangular pyramid the ratios of the edges will remain constant.
The two rectangles are not the same shape! 12:6 is not the same ratio as 10:4
If the original pyramid in this question was sliced in half the top rectangle of the frustum would be 6 x 3.
In this diagram the height was reduced from 14m to 8m so the top 6m was removed.
If the base was 12 x 6 the top rectangle should be 6/14 smaller = 5.14m by 2.57m (not 10 x 4)
