What is the maximum volume of a box you can make by cutting out squares from each corner of a 10 cm by 10 cm sheet?
Kaidavidson
Let x cm = side of square to be removed
Volume of box (v) will be x(10 - 2x)(10 - 2x)
v = 4x3 - 40x2 + 100x
v changes in accordance with f(v), the derivative of this, which is 12x2 - 80x + 100
When the rate of change is zero then the volume has reached a maximum or minimum ie when f(v) equals zero.
F(v) factorises as (6x - 10)(2x - 10) = 0
ie the values of x are 10/6 or 5, the latter being meaningless as there would be no box!
The squares to be removed are thus 1 and two thirds cm a side, giving the box dimensions of 6 and two thirds square by 1 and two thirds cm deep, a total volume
of 74 and two twentysevenths cm3 (74.074074 cm3)
Check: if square is 1.666 cm, vol is 6.668 x 6.668 x 1.666 = 74.074065
If square is 1.668 cm then vol is 6.664 x 6.664 x 1.668 = 74.074038
The "maximum volume" value thus lies between 1.666 and 1.668, confirming our calculation of 1.667 cm.

If you have 500 cm2 of material available to cover different shapes. what is the maximum volume of each object that you could make with this amount of material?
You will get the maximum volume in the case of a sphere. You can use the formula for the surface of a sphere to calculate the radius; from there, you can calculate the corresponding volume.Similarly, for other objects, such as a cube, the volume you get will be less.
What is the maximum volume of square that can be occupied into a sphere?
The question is meaningless. A square is a plane figure which has "area" and not "volume" as in a sphere..
