Can someone help me create a fromula for the Maximum of a Polynomial Function?

A cylinder is generated by rotating a rectangle with perimeter 12 in. about one of its sides.

a. Express the volume of the cylinder as a function of x.

I’m pretty stumped! I know I’m suppose to create 2 equations out of the knowledge I know but after that I don’t know how to combine them!

Any help is appreciated!

Lets let x be the side of the rectangle that becomes the radius of the base of the cylinder, as in the picture:

Half the perimeter is 6 so the height of the rectangle would be 6 – x, that’s also the height of the cylinder.

The volume of a cylinder is (pi)r^2h so:

V = (pi)x^2(6 – x)

If you want x to be the side that the rectangle is rotating about, the formula would look more like this:

v = (pi)(6 – x)^2(x)
