Answer: B) [tex](7-2x)(11-2x)x[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The length of the cardboard = 11 in.
The width of the cardboard =7 in.
If a box is created without a top from a piece of cardboard, but cutting out square corners with side length x, then the dimensions of box will be:-
Width (w)= [tex]7-2x[/tex]
length (l)= [tex]11-2x[/tex]
Height (h)=[tex]x[/tex]
Now, volume of rectangular box is given by :-
[tex]V=lwh\\\\\Rightarrow\ V=x(7-2x)(11-2x)[/tex]
Hence, the expression can be used to determine the greatest possible volume of the cardboard box is given by :-
[tex](7-2x)(11-2x)x[/tex]
