A cylinder shaped can needs to be constructed to hold 400 cubic
centimeters of soup. The material for the sides of the can costs
0.04 cents per square centimeter. The material for the top and
bottom of the can need to be thicker, and costs 0.05 cents per
square centimeter. Find the dimensions for the can that will
minimize production cost.
Helpful information:
h : height of can, r : radius of can
Volume of a cylinder: V=πr2^h
Area of the sides: A=2πrh
Area of the top/bottom: A=πr^2
To minimize the cost of the can:
Radius of the can:
Height of the can:
Minimum cost: _____ cents
