A solid is formed by adjoining two hemispheres to the ends of a right circular cylinder. The total volume of the solid is 6 cubi
c centimeters. Find the radius of the cylinder that produces the minimum surface area. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) A solid is formed by adjoining two hemispheres to the ends of a right circular cylinder. An industrial tank of this shape must have a volume of 4480 cubic feet. The hemispherical ends cost twice as much per square foot of surface area as the sides. Find the dimensions that will minimize the cost. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)
1 answer:
Answer:
1. The answer of the radius of the cylinder is 1.127cm to produce the minimum surface area
2. The radius of the industrial tank is 1.465ft and the height is 662.396 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>The first step</u> is to draw the shape and to determine the total surface area and the total volume of the shape. This is done by adding the total surface area of two hemispheres and the surface area of the cylinder and for the volume this is done by adding the volume of two hemispheres and the volume of the cylinder.
<u>The second step</u> is to make the total volume of the shape the constraint equation and the total surface area of the shape becomes the optimisation equation. From the constraint equation solve for h and make it in terms of r (you should advisable use V as a constant and finally substituting at the end). Thereafter, input the value of h in the optimisation equation and differentiate the equation with respect to r. Finally equate the equation to zero.
Third step involves solving for r
Now, for the second question, one has to double the total surface area of the hemispheres to provide the cost equation (this is done to take into account the higher costs of the hemispherical ends. Solve in the same way as the first and you will get the answer.

Answer:
The last graph
Step-by-step explanation:
We transform functions in the following ways:
- multiplying the function by a number to stretch or shrink it
- multiplying by a negative to flip the orientation of the function
- adding/subtracting a value to the input x to shift it horizontally
- adding/subtracting a value to the output (or outside the function operation) to shift it vertically or horizontally.
Looking at the equation we can see
- Vertically shrunk by 0.5
- Negative leading coefficient to flip the graph's orientation
- Horizontal shift of the vertex of 3 units to the left from (0,-2) to (-3,-2)
- Vertical shift of the vertex of 2 units downward (-3,0) to (-3,-2)
The last graph has vertex (-3,-2) and satisfies the the equation.
