1 relative minimum
2 relative maximum
3 cubic function
PRACTICE
Ict of a quadratic and linear
function or three linear functions. You can write a cubic

Cynthia is an engineer at a manufacturing plant. Her
boss asks her to use rectangular metal sheets to build
storage bins with the greatest possible volume. Each
rectangular sheet is 8 feet by 10 feet. Cynthia's sketch
shows the squares she removes from the corners of
each sheet. The dashed lines indicate where she folds
the metal sheets before she welds them to form the
prism-shaped storage bins without tops.
