Question:

A supermarket is to be designed as a rectangular building with a floor area of 12,000 square feet. The front of the building will be mostly glass and will cost $70 per running foot for materials. The other three walls will be constructed of brick and cement block, at a cost of $50 per running foot. Ignore all other costs (labor, cost of foundation and roof, and the like) and find the dimensions of the base of the building that will minimize the cost of the materials for the four walls of the building.
