#### Table Data

| x | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| V | 484 | 800 | 972 | 1,024 | 980 | 864 |

#### Tasks

**(a)** Write the volume (V) in cubic centimeters.

**(b)** Plot the points (x, V) from the table in part (a). Does the relation defined by the ordered pairs represent a function of x?
- Yes
- No

If it does represent a function of x, write the function. (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.)

\[ V = \]

Determine the domain of the function.
- V is not a function of x.
- All real numbers.
- All real numbers except \( x = 12 \).
- \( 0 < x \le 12 \).
- All real numbers except \( x = 0 \).

#### Graphs and Diagrams Description

There are no specific graphs or diagrams provided in the original image; however, students are encouraged to plot the given table values onto a graph, with x-values on the horizontal axis and V-values on the vertical axis. The goal is to visually determine whether the plotted points suggest a functional relationship between x and V.

### Open Box Maximum Volume Calculation

An open box of maximum volume is made from a square piece of material 24 centimeters on a side by cutting equal squares from the corners and turning up the sides.

#### Diagram Description:
- The left diagram represents a square piece of material with side length 24 cm. Squares of side length \( x \) cm are cut out from each corner.
- The right diagram shows the resulting box when the sides are turned up. The dimensions of the box are: 
  - Height: \( x \) cm
  - Length and Width: \( 24 - 2x \) cm, as the squares of side length \( x \) cm are removed from each corner.

#### (a) Volume Table for Various Heights
The table below shows the volumes \( V \) (in cubic centimeters) of the box for various heights \( x \) (in centimeters). Use the table to estimate the maximum volume.

| **Height, \( x \) (cm)** | 1   | 2   | 3   | 4    | 5    | 6    |
|--------------------------|-----|-----|-----|------|------|------|
| **Volume, \( V \) (cm³)**| 484 | 800 | 972 | 1,024| 980  | 864  |  

**Estimated Maximum Volume:**

\[ \boxed{1,024} \] cubic centimeters

#### (b) Plot Points and Determine Function
- **Plot the points \((x, V)\) from the table in part (a).**
- **Question: Does the relation defined by the ordered pairs represent \( V \) as a function of \( x \)?**
  - Options:
    - Yes
    - No

- **If it does represent a function of \( x \), write the function. (If an answer does-not exist, enter DNE.)**

\[ V = \] 

(Note: The function representing \( V \) in terms of \( x \) can typically be derived using algebraic methods, involving terms representing the volume of the box, where \( V = x(24-2x)^2 \). The maximum volume can usually be found by taking the derivative and setting it to zero to solve for \( x \).)
