An online courier service is ready to transport a diverse range of items to ensure efficient delivery. The agency requires boxes of various dimensions. Let's now focus on creating open boxes that have fixed height for storing these items. Take a cardboard of length thrice of the width and cut the edge of all 4 corners with 15cms, then fold the cardboard to get an open box.     Based on that information, answer the following questions: (i) Find the volume of the open box, explain whether the resultant function is a polynomial or any other. (ii) Find the possible domain for the volume function (iii) If we wish to put a flexible item that has a volume of 12500 cubic cm, what dimensions of the box would be appropriate?

Question

 

An online courier service is ready to transport a diverse range of items to ensure efficient delivery. The agency requires boxes of various dimensions. Let's now focus on creating open boxes that have fixed height for storing these items. Take a cardboard of length thrice of the width and cut the edge of all 4 corners with 15cms, then fold the cardboard to get an open box.

 

 

Based on that information, answer the following questions:

(i) Find the volume of the open box, explain whether the resultant function is a polynomial or any other.

(ii) Find the possible domain for the volume function

(iii) If we wish to put a flexible item that has a volume of 12500 cubic cm, what dimensions of the box would be appropriate?
