The length and width of a cardboard are 24 ft and 14 ft. We are going to cut out the comers and fold up the sides to form a box. Determine the height of the box that will give maximum volume.
Note: Write only the numerical value of the height, the units are already written. Write the exact answer not the decimal approximation (for example write 4/5 not 0.8). Also, if the answer is 3 + Ö5/4 then write 3 + Ö5/4 or (3+sqrt(5))/4.
