Question 1122211: It is necessary to construct a
box whose volume is equal to
640𝑐𝑚3 with a rectangular
piece that is 6𝑐𝑚 longer than
wide, cutting a square of 4𝑐𝑚 of
side in each corner and folding
the edges. Determine the
dimensions of the box.
The volume of a rectangular box is the length times the width times the depth. Since you are cutting 4 cm squares from the corners, clearly the depth is 4 cm. You are given that the length is the width plus 6 and the width is just the width.
