<h2>Dimension of box is 2 m x 2 m x 1.33 m</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a be base side and h be the height.
Volume of box, V = a²h
The sides of the box will cost $3 per m² and the base will cost $4 per m². Cost for making is $48.
That is
4a² + 3 x 4 x a x h = 48
4a² + 12 a x h = 48
a² + 3 ah = 12
So volume is
At maximum volume we have derivative is zero,
Negative side is not possible, hence side of square base is 2m.
Substituting in a² + 3 ah = 12
2² + 3 x 2 x h = 12
h = 1.33 m
Dimension of box is 2 m x 2 m x 1.33 m
