(1 point) Find the volume of the largest rectangular box with edges parallel to the axes that can be inscribed in the ellipsoid 81x2+16y2+9z2=1 Hint: By symmetry, you can restrict your attention to the first octant (where x,y,z≥0 ), and assume your volume has the form V=8xyz. Then arguing by symetry, you need on look for points which achieve the maximum which lie in the first octant. Maximum volume:
