Answer:

y = -1/2x +6

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the slope intercept form of a line

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -1/2x +b

Substitute the point into the equation

9 = -1/2 (-6) +b

9 = 3+b

9-3 =b

6 =b

y = -1/2x +6

Answer:

  • radius: 1.84 in
  • height: 3.68 in

Step-by-step explanation:

After you've worked a couple of "optimum cylinder" problems, you find that the cylinder with the least surface area for a given volume has a height that is equal to its diameter. So, the volume equation becomes ...

  V = πr²·h = 2πr³ = 39 in³

Then the radius is ...

  r = ∛(39/(2π)) in ≈ 1.83779 in ≈ 1.84 in

  h = 2r = 3.67557 in ≈ 3.68 in

_____

The total surface area of a cylinder is ...

  S = 2πr² + 2πrh

For a given volume, V, this becomes ...

  S = 2π(r² +r·(V/(πr²))) = 2πr² +2V/r

The derivative of this with respect to r is ...

  S' = 4πr -2V/r²

Setting this to zero and multiplying by r²/2 gives ...

  0 = 2πr³ -V

  r = ∛(V/(2π)) . . . . . . . . looks a lot like the expression above for r

__

If we substitute the equation for V into the equation just above this last one, we have ...

  0 = 2πr³ - πr²·h

Dividing by πr² gives ...

  0 = 2r - h

  h = 2r . . . . . generic solution for cylinder optimization problems
