12. Example 4 Use Extrema for Optimization FUEL ECONOMY Advertisements for a new car claim that a tank of gas will take a driver and three passengers about 360 miles. After researching on the Internet, you find the function for miles per tank of gas for the car is f (x) =  0.025x 2 + 3.5x + 240, where x is the speed in miles per hour. What speed optimizes the distance the car can travel on a tank of gas? How far will the car travel at that optimum speed?

13. Example 4 VOLUME A square with side length x is cut from each corner of a rectangle with dimensions 8 inches by 12 inches. Then the figure is folded to form an open box, as shown in the diagram. Determine the length and width of the box that will allow the maximum volume. A.6.43 in. by 10.43 in. B.4.86 in. by 8.86 in. C.3 in. by 7 in. D.1.57 in. by 67.6 in.
