    Oh my gosh! I was so confused on optimization problems, and I have my calculus final tomorrow. I'm starting to get more clearer on them thanks to your videos!! Thank you so much! :-)

    So I loaded this video up this morning, but had to leave to go take my calc final before I had time to watch it. There was 1 question on my final that I couldn't figure out and it was literally the exact same question as in this video... fuck my life.

      ​@@user-yq4eq5cy8d Calc 3 ended up being the worst grade on my undergrad transcript (and I took more math beyond it). I can do calculus in my sleep now, but I still have the occasional nightmare from this class. Luckily my major was Computer Science, so I awake from those nightmares on a very comfortable mattress! :)

    Look at 02:14. The white space he points to that says "side" will be folded from its horizontal position into a vertical position. Now that white space is standing straight up, so x becomes the height of the side of that white space. Since it is a box all the sides are the same height, so x becomes the height of the box.

    The minimum surface/volume is a sphere
    The maximum volume of a box is a cube
    To get a cube from a square you divide the edge by three and notch away
    It took longer to write that than to think it
    I hope derivatives are useful in more complex ways that are themselves useful
    Don't mind me... :)

    The proof should be 2/3 to the power of 3, right ? I think you forgot to see that it is 1/3 of 2 feet or 2 feet divided by 3. So it should be (6/3 - 2x2/3) (6/3-2x2/3) 2/3

    So, if you were only given the volume first, say it was 4000, would you end up writing the equation as 4000 = (y-2x)(y-2x)(x) and then solving for Y?

    @millamulisha I understand you're joking but I feel like answering anyway...
    #1 It says in the problem description that they are squares.
    #2 If they weren't squares the box would have different heights, effectively meaning it is a pretty useless box...
