CloudLabs Cubic Funtion vs Finding The Missing Digits

This simulation recreates a production line where boxes are made. The volume of each box is represented by a cubic function, and the variable is the length of the cut made to the sheet of cardboard. You will need to determine which cut length will allow for a maximum volume in the box. You will be able to do this by finding the coefficients of the cubic function from the width and the length of the sheet of cardboard, plotting the function, and finding the maximum point. The simulation provides a sheet of cardboard, a cutting machine, a conveyor belt, a control panel, a material dispenser, and a computer.

The DOST Courseware is a locally-produced, all-original Filipino highly interactive multimedia educational application packages that are conceptualized, digitized and produced as spearheaded by the Science Education Institute (SEI-DOST) in partnership with the Advanced Science and Technology Institute (ASTI-DOST) and in cooperation with the Department of Education (DepEd), Philippine Normal University (PNU) and University of the Philippines-National Institute for Science and Mathematics Education (UP-NISMED), which aims to develop information and communication technology learning innovation to support the upgrading and improvement of science and mathematics education in the country. The DOST Courseware are provided for free to schools and are also made available online as supplemental resources for teachers and student as a fun and interactive approach to e-learning and blended learning.
