Numerical, Graphical, and Analytic Analysis An open box of maximum volume is to be made from a square piece of material,24 inches on a side,by cutting equal squares from the corners and turning up the sides (see figure).

(a) Analytically complete six rows of a table such as the one below. (The first two rows are shown.) Use the table to guess the maximum volume.

(b) Write the volume V as a function of x.

(c) Use calculus to find the critical number of the function in part (b) and find the maximum value.

(d) Use a graphing utility to graph the function in part (b) and verify the maximum volume from the graph.
