Question:

The Betty Moore Company requires that its corned beef hash containers have a capacity of 50 in3, be right circular cylinders, and be made of a tin alloy. Find the radius and height of the least expensive container that can be made if the metal for the side and bottom costs 6¢/ /in.2 and the metal for the pull-off lid costs 1¢/ /in.2. (Hint: Let the radius and height of the container be r and h in. respectively. Then, the volume of the container is ?r2h=50, and the cost is given by C(r,h) = 12?rh + 7?r2.) (Give your answers correct to 2 decimal places.)
