By the chain rule,
It looks like we're given
where <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are presumably constant.
Recall that
so that
Then we have
where the last reduction follows from dividing through everything by and simplifying.
I'm not sure at which point you're supposed to evaluate the derivative (22/7*4, as in 88/7? or something else?), so I'll leave that to you.
Now, as the pizza is circular, so it does not matter about the box shape. If the box shape increases or decreases, the pizza shape is the same.
Now, we have been asked about the largest pizza radii that can fit in the box, so we will consider the shortest value of the box.
The width is given as 14 inches. There is a 2 inch border around the pizza. So, the width is 14-4 = 10 inches. (Now assume this as the diameter of pizza)
And the radius is = inches.
So, the largest pizza that can fit in the box will have a radius of 5 inches.
