a metallic sheet is of rectangular shape with dimensions 28m×36m from each of its corners a square is cut off so as to make an open box the volume of the box is Xm^3 , whenthe length of the square is 8m the value of X is?

Answer 1

width of base = 28-16 = 12 m
length of base = 36-16 = 20 m
height of box = 8 m

volume = 12(20)(8) = 1920 m^3

(why introduce variables when there is no need for them ?)
