Question 1186325: On a rectangular piece of cardboard with perimeter 13 inches, three parallel and equally spaced creases are made. (See Figure 1.) The cardboard is then folded along the creases to make a rectangular box with open ends. (See Figure 2.) Letting x represent the distance (in inches) between the creases, use the ALEKS graphing calculator to find the value of x that maximizes the volume enclosed by this box. Then give the maximum volume. Round your responses to two decimal places.

I do not see Figures 1 and 2, because they absent in the post.
Also, I have no ALEKS graphing calculator to satisfy your requests.
I do not understand your writing about three equally spaced creases and consider it as a total GIBBERISH.
