    The maximum volume would be when the bottom of the box is a square.

    The perimeter of the bottom is 36, so the side of the square would be 36/4 = 9 cm.

    Then to find volume multiply the length by the width by the height:

    Volume = 9 x 9 x 4 = 324 cm^3

    The answer would be a.

    a. 324 cm^3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The bottom of a box is to be a rectangle with a perimeter of 36 CM. The Box must be 4 cm High. Therefore, the maximum volume is 324 cm^3.

    36 : 4 = 9 cm.

    9 ⋅ 9 ⋅ 4 = 324 cm^3
