Answer:

7x^16. Step-by-step solution in the attachment.

To answer this question it is necessary to find the volume of the box as a function of "x", and apply the concepts of a maximum of a function.

The solution is:

a) V (max) = 36.6 in³

b) x = 1.3 in

The volume of a cube is:

V(c) = w×L×h  ( in³)

In this case, cutting the length  "x" from each side, means:

wide of the box    ( w - 2×x )   equal to  ( 7 - 2×x )

Length of the box ( L - 2×x )   equal to  ( 9 - 2×x )

The height  is  x

Then the volume of the box,  as a function of x is:

V(x) = ( 7 - 2×x ) × ( 9 -2×x ) × x

V(x) = ( 63 - 14×x - 18×x + 4×x²)×x

V(x) = 4×x³ - 32×x² + 63×x

Tacking derivatives,  on both sides of the equation

V´(x) = 12×x² - 64 ×x + 63

If   V´(x) = 0      then      12×x² - 64 ×x + 63 = 0

This expression is a second-degree equation, solving for x

x₁,₂ = [ 64 ± √ (64)² - 4×12*63

x₁ =  ( 64 + 32.74 )/ 24

x₁ = 4.03     this value  will bring us an unfeasible solution,  since it is not possible to cut 2×4 in from a piece of paper of 7 in ( therefore we dismiss that value)

x₂ = ( 64 - 32.74)/24

x₂ = 1.30 in

The  maximum volume of the box is:

V(max) = ( 7 - 2.60) × ( 9 - 2.60)×1.3

V(max) = 4.4 × 6.4 × 1.3

V(max) = 36.60 in³

To chek for maximum value of V when x = 1.3

we find the second derivative of V  V´´,  and substitute the value of x = 1.3,    if the relation is smaller than 0,  we have a maximum value of V

V´´(x) = 24×x - 64 for x = 1.3

V´´(x) = 24× 1.3 - 64            ⇒   V´´(x) < 0

Then the value  x = 1.3 will bring maximum value for V

Final answer:

The maximum volume of the box that can be formed is approximately 17.1875 cubic inches. The cutout length that would result in this maximum volume is approximately 1.25 inches.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we will use optimization in calculus. Let's denote the length of the square cutout as 'x'. When you cut out an x by x square from each corner and fold up the sides, the box will have dimensions:

• Length: 9 inches (the original length) - 2x (the removed parts)
• Width: 7 inches (the original width) - 2x
• Height: x inches (the height is the cutout's length)

So the volume V of the box can be given by the equation: V = x(9-2x)(7-2x). We want to maximize this volume.

To find the maximum, differentiate V with respect to x, equate to zero and solve for x. V' = (9-2x)(7-2x) + x(-2)(7-2x) + x(9-2x)(-2) = 0. We obtain x=1.25 inches, but we need to verify whether this value gives us a maximum. Second differentiation, V'' = -12 is less than zero for these dimensions so the V is maximum.

a. So, when we solve, the maximum volume will be approximately 17.1875 cubic inches.

b. The cutout length that would produce the maximum volume is therefore about 1.25 inches.
