A rectangular sheet of paper 24 cm × 9 cm is to be made into a box with an open top by cutting equal squares from the corners and folding up the sides. Find the side of the square to be cut so that the volume is maximum.
In this section, the authors discuss the application of derivatives to find the maximum and minimum values of a function. They define the following terms: A rectangular sheet of paper 24 cm ×
