The largest possible volume of the given box is; 96.28 ft³
<h3>How to maximize volume of a box?</h3>
Let b be the length and the width of the base (length and width are the same since the base is square).
Let h be the height of the box.
The surface area of the box is;
S = b² + 4bh
We are given S = 100 ft². Thus;
b² + 4bh = 100
h = (100 - b²)/4b
Volume of the box in terms of b will be;
V(b) = b²h = b² * (100 - b²)/4b
V(b) = 25b - b³/4
The volume is maximum when dV/db = 0. Thus;
dV/db = 25 - 3b²/4
25 - 3b²/4 = 0
√(100/3) = b
b = 5.77 ft
Thus;
h = (100 - (√(100/3)²)/4(5.77)
h = 2.8885 ft
Thus;
Largest volume = [√(100/3)]² * 2.8885
Largest Volume = 96.28 ft³

Answer:
yes you did that correctly
Answer:
10* 299.99=2999.9
2999.9/100=29.999
this would round up to 30, so Brittany saved $30. : )
Answer:
Expression: 0.15 * 20
Equation: 0.15 * 20 = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
This expression was found by dividing 15% by 100 to convert it into a decimal (0.15) that can be used to multiply with 20 to get your answer.
