A cylindrical can without a top is made to contain 25 3 cm of liquid. What are the dimensions of the can that will minimize the

Basile [38]

Answer:

Therefore the radius of the can is 1.71 cm and height of the can is 2.72 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, the volume of cylindrical can with out top is 25 cm³.

Consider the height of the can be h and radius be r.

The volume of the can is V= $\pi r^2h$

According to the problem,

$\pi r^2 h=25$

$\Rightarrow h=\frac{25}{\pi r^2}$

The surface area of the base of the can is = $\pi r^2$

The metal for the bottom will cost $2.00 per cm²

The metal cost for the base is =$(2.00× $\pi r^2$ )

The lateral surface area of the can is = $2\pi rh$

The metal for the side will cost $1.25 per cm²

The metal cost for the base is =$(1.25× $2\pi rh$ )

$=\$2.5 \pi r h$

Total cost of metal is C= 2.00 $\pi r^2$ + $2.5 \pi r h$

Putting $h=\frac{25}{\pi r^2}$

$\therefore C=2\pi r^2+2.5 \pi r \times \frac{25}{\pi r^2}$

$\Rightarrow C=2\pi r^2+ \frac{62.5}{ r}$

Differentiating with respect to r

$C'=4\pi r- \frac{62.5}{ r^2}$

Again differentiating with respect to r

$C''=4\pi + \frac{125}{ r^3}$

To find the minimize cost, we set C'=0

$4\pi r- \frac{62.5}{ r^2}=0$

$\Rightarrow 4\pi r=\frac{62.5}{ r^2}$

$\Rightarrow r^3=\frac{62.5}{ 4\pi}$

⇒r=1.71

Now,

$\left C''\right|_{x=1.71}=4\pi +\frac{125}{1.71^3}>0$

When r=1.71 cm, the metal cost will be minimum.

Therefore,

$h=\frac{25}{\pi\times 1.71^2}$

⇒h=2.72 cm

Therefore the radius of the can is 1.71 cm and height of the can is 2.72 cm.

kvasek [131]

Answer:

$\huge\mathfrak\pink{S} \huge\mathfrak\purple{o} \huge\mathfrak\blue{l} \huge\mathfrak\red{u} \huge\mathfrak\green{t} \huge\mathfrak\pink{i}\huge\mathfrak\purple{o}\huge\mathfrak\red{n}\huge\mathfrak\orange{:}\$

Linear function :The characteristic property of linear functions is that when the input variable is changed, the change in the output is proportional to the change in the input. Linear functions are related to linear equations.
