Minimize the cost by minimizing volume of a cylindrical can


Discussion:

Q: We've got a cylindrical can with height =h and radius =r. It will hold 4L (4,000 cm cubed) of some liquid. The material for the top and bottom costs 2 cents per square cm and the material for the side costs 1 cent per square cm. Find h and r to minimize the cost.
