Suppose an airline policy states that all baggage must be box-shaped with a sum of length, width, and height not exceeding 84 in. What are the dimensions and volume of a square-based box with the greatest volume under these conditions? The length of the square-end edge is in. The box height is in. The greatest volume of the box is inĀ³.

A shipping company handles rectangular boxes provided the sum of the height and the girth of the box does not exceed 96 in. (The girth is the perimeter of the smallest side of the box.) Find the dimensions of the box that meets this condition and has the largest volume.
