Let x represent the side length of the squares.
We have been given that an open box is made from an 8 by ten-inch rectangular piece of cardboard by cutting squares from each corner and folding up the sides. We are asked to find the volume of the box.
The side of box will be
and
.
The height of the box will be
.
The volume of box will be area of base times height.

Now we will use FOIL to simplify our expression.


Now we will distribute x.


Therefore, the volume of the box would be
.
Four is greater than y, and -1 is less than y
