My progress so far!

I generalized by following the same rules and using variables to make things 5 times as much and 3 times as much. I can use any number to make the box bigger or smaller this way. When it was time to graph I took a look at my tables to figure out my minimum and maximum values. I then planned a scale and checked it on a calculator by graphing the function and checking the graphs appearence. I adjusted the window settings by changing the X and Y scales.
When organizing my data into different tables we simply had a different table for each of our functions. Each table had the X and Y values.
Our results showed that the function (130-4x)(x)(x) has the maximum valume out the four funtions that we graphed. The maximum value was 20342 cubic inches. This box was 1 time as big.

My questions

1]How many people will be working per group?
2]When will we officially start working on the project?
3]Are we going to use Blogger for the rest of the semester or is it only going to be used while we work on this project?
