उत्तर

Let x cm be the side of square base and h cm be its height.

Then x2 + 4xh = 147

∴ h = `(147 - x^2)/(4x)`                    ...(1)

Let V = `x^2"h"`

= `x^2((147 - x^2)/(4x))`   ...[By (1)]

∴ V = `(1)/(4)(147x - x^3)`

∴ `"dV"/("d"x) = (1)/(4) (147x - x^3) = 0`

∴ 147 = 3x2

∴ `147/3 = x^2`

∴ x2 = 49

∴ x = 7

Put in eq (i)

∴ h = `(147 - x^2)/(4x)`   

∴ h = `(147 - 49)/(4(7))`   

∴ h = `98/(4 xx 7)`

∴ h = `14/4`

∴ h = `7/2`

∴ h = 3.5

Hence, the volume of the box is largest when the side of square base is 7 cm and its height is 3.5 cm.
